Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has welcomed the club's interest in Lille star Gervinho.

Lille claim Arsenal are set to hold talks with Gervinho about a possible move to the Emirates this week.

Arsenal are favourites ahead of Tottenham, Liverpool and Newcastle to land the highly-rated Ivory Coast international.

Sagna believes the skilful attacker would be a welcome addition to Arsene Wenger's side next season.

"I've heard about him. He's a gifted player," Sagna told France's RMC radio station

"This season, he was a key player for Lille, and really help his team to be champion.

"He's got a wonderfull technique on a football field, and I'm sure he would be welcome."
Staying put

Meanwhile, Sagna insists he plans to stay at Arsenal despite being linked with a move away from the club.

The likes of Bayern Munich and Inter Milan have been linked with the right-back, but Sagna claims he is happy to remain with the Gunners.

"I have a very good feeling playing with these team, and I'm convinced a lot of French players want to be in my position," added Sagna.

"But it's true I would have preferred to finish the season with a smile and a trophy.

"Everything is possible, but I can say I'm now at Arsenal 99%."

Cesc Fabregas has admitted he is frustrated at Arsenal's lack of recent success but maintains he is happy at Emirates Stadium.

The Spain international continues to be linked with a return to Barcelona, where he started his career before moving to North London as a teenager.

The 24-year-old insists that no decision has been reached over his future and admitted that the Gunners and manager Arsene Wenger would have a major say over where he is playing his football next season.

Fabregas, who missed the closing weeks of the season through injury, revealed he had not spoken to Wenger since early May when he was interviewed at a promotional event in Spain.

The gifted midfielder remains confident that the Gunners can end their six-year silverware drought, but would not be drawn over the latest Camp Nou reports when the question was inevitably raised.
Lying

"He (Wenger) is the boss, the one who makes the decisions. You should ask him. I was injured at the end of the season and I haven't seen him for about six weeks."
