Lorient are in talks with Arsenal over a loan for French midfielder Francis Coquelin.

Coquelin has also attracted interest from Sheffield United.

He told RMC: "It (the talks) have happened, it is true. There have been discussions between the two clubs but for the moment they have not agreed on anything. I will not be against a return in France, but I have to make sure it would be a club where I am certain to get game time"
