Arsenal striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang would prefer a move to a European club if he leaves the club in this transfer window.
There are a host of European clubs interested in the Gabon international, including Paris Saint-Germain, Marseille, Juventus, AC Milan and Sevilla, with Arsenal open to offers.
But Saudi Arabian club Al Nassr are the only side to have made a concrete offer for Aubameyang at this stage.
They have asked to take the former Arsenal captain on loan, with an obligation to buy.
Aubameyang has 18 months left on his Arsenal contract and an exit in this transfer window would represent a saving of around £25m in wages for the Gunners.
Aubameyang has not featured for Arteta’s side since the club’s 2-1 defeat to Everton in the Premier League on December 6 after being stripped of the captaincy following a disciplinary issue.
He has made 15 appearances across all competitions this season and scored four league goals.
The 32-year-old recently returned to London from the Africa Cup of Nations for medical examinations after being diagnosed with heart lesions following a positive coronavirus test.
However, after further checks in London he said: “My heart is absolutely fine and I’m completely healthy”.
