Monaco are open to listening to offers for Arsenal linked defender Djibril Sidibe during the summer transfer window.
The 24-year-old full-back snubbed Arsenal in favour of joining Monaco from Lille last summer but has not closed the door on a move to the Premier League in the near future.
The defender recently talked about his apprehension over leaving Monaco for a bigger club, but according to French sports daily L’Equipe, the Ligue 1 outfit are warming up to the idea of allowing Sidibe to find the exit door this summer.
Monaco were always aware that Sidibe joined the club to use them as a springboard to move to a bigger side, preferably in the Premier League, sooner rather than later.
While Leonardo Jardim has rebuked the defender’s suggestion of a move to England in the summer, Monaco are willing to listen to offers as they feel young defender Almamy Toure is ready to step up to the plate.
