Sagna rejects an approach from PSG?

Arsenal defender Bacary Sagna has rejected an offer from Paris Saint-Germain as he favours a move to Manchester City, according to reports in France.

The France international has confirmed that he will be leaving the Gunners when his contract expires at the end of the month, though the 31-year-old is yet to reveal which club he will join.

L'Equipe has claimed that an approach from PSG has been rejected as the full-back wants to join the Premier League champions.

With Micah Richards leaving the club this summer, Manuel Pellegrini wants an experienced player to provide competition for first-choice Pablo Zabaleta on the right flank.

Sagna has decided to leave Arsenal after seven years at the club having been unable to reach an agreement with the side over a contract extension.

Despite interest from Ligue 1 giants PSG and Monaco, Sagna is understood to want to remain in the Premier League.
