Arsenal transfer report: Saint-Etienne star in the dark over Gunners switch

Loic Perrin has revealed he is still in the dark over whether a January move to Arsenal will happen.

The Saint-Etienne captain has been heavily linked with a switch to north London since the window opened in January.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is said to be on the hunt for defensive reinforcements and Perrin's ability to play either in the centre of defence or midfielder appears to have made him a prime target.

However, after weeks of speculation, the 29-year-old has revealed he is no nearer to finalising his future.

"Right now, we are talking a little less [about the transfer]. I do not know where we are with it as I have not heard [from Arsenal]," Perrin told Al Jazeera Sport.
