Arsenal 'open to offloading Francis Coquelin amid West Ham United interest'

Arsenal will reportedly listen to offers for midfielder Francis Coquelin, who has dropped down the pecking order.

Arsenal are reportedly willing to let go of Francis Coquelin this month if satisfactory offers are tabled.

The midfielder has been part of the North London club since 2008, when he joined the youth setup from Stade Lavallois.

Manager Arsene Wenger gave Coquelin his first-team debut just two months after moving to Arsenal, but in recent seasons the midfielder has struggled for regular game time.

In the current campaign, the 26-year-old has started just one Premier League game and has come off the bench in a further six.

With the likes of Granit Xhaka, Mohamed Elneny and now Jack Wilshere standing in his way, Coquelin's career may be on the verge of taking a different direction.

According to the Daily Mail, West Ham are leading the chase for the Frenchman's signature, while there has also been interest from his homeland.

The report claims that Arsenal are willing to listen to offers before the transfer window shuts at the end of the month.
