Lorient have reportedly expressed an interest in signing Yaya Sanogo on loan from Arsenal when the transfer window re-opens next week.
The striker has struggled to secure a regular place in the Gunners' team this season, making just six appearances in all competitions this campaign.
According to reports in the French media, the Ligue 1 side have already contacted the London club to determine whether they would be interested in letting Sanogo leave.
Crystal Palace are also thought to be interested in a loan deal for the France Under-21 international.
