Report: Galatasaray chase Bacary Sagna

Bacary Sagna is a target for Galatasaray and the Turkish club are ready to offer him a bumper contract, a report says.

The Arsenal defender is out of contract at the end of the season, but it was reported during the week that he was going to hold fresh talks over a new deal.

However, The Mirror reports that Galatasaray are willing to pay him £4m a year after tax on a four-year contract, whereas the Gunners are prepared to offer just two further years, worth around £70,000 per week.

Arsene Wenger wants the right-back to stay, the newspaper adds, and hopes to use the prospect of new signings to convince Sagna that his future should be with Arsenal.

The French international has also been linked with Paris-Saint Germain, Monaco and Inter Milan.
