Saint-Etienne captain Loic Perrin has claimed that Arsenal have spoken to him about a potential move in January.
Gunners manager Arsene Wenger is said to be looking to add a centre-back to his squad, with reports suggesting that the 29-year-old is a target.
Perrin says that while he has been approached about a move to the Emirates Stadium, the North London outfit have not yet agreed a deal with Saint-Etienne.
"I was contacted personally. Arsenal are interested," he told Maxifoot. "But for now, there is still no contact with Saint-Etienne."
Perrin has made 19 appearances for the French side this season.
