Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is planning to offload midfielder Mathieu Flamini at the end of this season, as per Daily Telegraph.
The
French midfielder returned to Arsenal in 2013 to spend his second spell. But
the palyer is likely to leave this summer with Arsenal looking to sell him.
Flamini
has failed to establish a permanent position in the first team. He is currently out with a hamstring injury. The 30-year-old has made 15 Premier League starts this season.

Reports
further reveal that Gunners are already keen to sign Southampton midfielder
Morgan Schneiderlin for a big fee in the summer. His arrival definitely means
an exit of Flamini.
Schneiderlin
has been impressive for the Saints since his move from Strasbourg in 2008. He
has made more than 200 competitive appearances for the Saints.
According
to Mirror, Arsenal are preparing a 30 million pound bid to secure his services.
The Frenchman is also targeted by Spanish giants Barcelona.
Meanwhile
Arsenal are also planning to sell injury prone midfielder Abou Diaby. The
Frenchman is still on the sidelines.
The 28-year-old has made only 123 Premier League appearances in his eight seasons at Arsenal.
