Francis Coquelin 'waits on new Arsenal deal'

Francis Coquelin reportedly delays any decision over his future until he is sure of regular first-team action at Arsenal.

Arsenal midfielder Francis Coquelin is reportedly willing to delay his decision over signing a new contract until he knows whether he will play regularly.

The Frenchman earned rave reviews for his performance in the Gunners' 2-0 win at Manchester City last week and has caught the eye of several Premier League rivals, according to the Daily Mail.

Coquelin, 23, is out of contract with the London club in the summer, but is happy to wait until Jack Wilshere returns from injury next month to find out if he will feature prominently under manager Arsene Wenger.

His opportunities for first-team action may be limited if Arsenal decide to pursue a deal for Borussia Dortmund's Ilkay Gundogan, and commit captain Mikel Arteta to the club for a further 12 months.

Coquelin's displays are also rumoured to have attracted interest from a number of French clubs looking to snap up the youngster on a free transfer.
