Marseille will only make a move for out-of-favour Arsenal defender Mathieu Debuchy in the final days of the transfer window.
The 32-year-old defender has not been a major part of Arsene Wenger’s plans for some time now and he has been available for a move away from the Emirates all summer.
Debuchy is one of the players Wenger is keen to ship out in the final two weeks of the window but the club are yet to receive a concrete proposal for the France international.
It emerged earlier this week that Marseille are considering signing Debuchy this month as cover at right-back and are expected to make a move for the defender soon.
However, it has been claimed that the Arsenal man is not a priority signing for the Ligue 1 club and according to French sports daily L’Equipe, a move will only materialise towards the final days of the window.
