Laurent Koscielny reportedly refuses to enter peace talks with Arsenal as the defender seeks to force an exit from the Emirates this summer.

Laurent Koscielny has reportedly declined to enter peace talks with Arsenal as the defender seeks to force a move away from the Emirates this summer.

The Arsenal captain, whose contract expires next year, refused to link up with the Arsenal squad for their pre-season tour of the United States.

Reports have suggested that Ligue 1 sides Bordeaux and Rennes are both in talks with the wantaway defender about a return to France.

According to The Mirror, Arsenal have displayed a willingness to give Koscielny another chance but the defender has no interest in holding peace talks with the club.

The 33-year-old was angered by Arsenal's refusal to grant him an extra year on top of the 12 months remaining on his contract, with the North London club insisting that any extension would be based on performance.

Arsenal are now on the search for reinforcements at centre-back alongside pursuing the signature of Celtic left-back Kieran Tierney ahead of Thursday's transfer deadline.
