Laurent Koscielny in exit talks with Arsenal

Laurent Koscielny is in talks with Arsenal about a departure this summer.

The 33-year-old is set to leave the Emirates after nine years at the club after failing to agree on a new contract.

The veteran centre-back has one year remaining on his current Gunners deal but Lyon and Rennes have swooped to offer him an immediate homecoming.

Koscielny's agent has now held talks with Arsenal over his future in north London, with the defender set to make a decision soon, says the Telegraph.

And Arsenal will still demand a fee of around £10million for their skipper from any potential suitors.
