Bacary Sagna has hinted that he could yet stay at Arsenal next season. After the Gunners ended their nine year trophy drought, the emotion on Sagna’s face said it all, he was overjoyed that he had managed to win silverware with the Gunners. Perhaps it has given him second thoughts on a departure after telling press he will ‘try to find a solution’ with the club.
Sagna to BBC on his #afc future: “I don’t know…I’ve been talking with the club for a long time and we’ll try to find a solution.”

Arsene Wenger has said recently how he still held hope of Sagna staying and the latest quotes from the player will give the fans and manager a renewed hope. Arsenal have been heavily linked with Toulouse defender Serge Aurier, and they still may choose to pursue interest even if Sagna does stay.]
Watch this video which shows the Arsenal players and fans sing to Sagna ‘we want you to stay’ at the FA Cup trophy parade on Sunday.
Sagna has had another quality season for the Gunners, and seems to be demanding a three year contract, which would mean the Gunners would be contracted to keep hold of the high earner until he is 34. In my opinion it is still worth doing, sheerly due to the amount of quality and experience he possesses. What are your thoughts on the situation? Comment below.
