French club AS Monaco have admitted they are prepared for a Park Chu-young exit.

The South Korea international has been linked with a Stade Louis II exit after his strong performance at the 2010 World Cup and Les Rouge et Blanc boss Guy Lacombe has not ruled out the possibility of the former FC Seoul forward departing.

"I don't know anything about transfer rumours," he said. "Even if an offer came we have no mind to sell the player, but in football I think there is no such word as 'never'."

Park has been linked with English Premier League clubs Aston Villa, Fulham and Everton.
