France U21 international Blaise Matuidi has admitted that he would consider a move to Premier League giants Arsenal.
The 21-year-old was linked with a move to the Gunners in the summer.
“I asked myself questions at the end of August after Arsenal showed their interest,” Matuidi said in The Sun.
“An opportunity to join them is not something ordinary. It gives you great self-esteem – it is Arsenal.
“At the end of the season we will have talks, anything is possible.”
St Etienne president Roland Romeyer has admitted that he spoke with Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger in the summer.
“Wenger called me at the end of August to ask if Blaise was for sale. He didn’t make an offer as Blaise was not for sale,” said Romeyer.
“Next June we will have a meeting with Blaise and his agent about his future.”
Matuidi could leave St Etienne for around £10million in the January transfer window.
