Arsenal full-back Mathieu Debuchy has dropped his strongest hint yet that he is prepared to leave the club during the January transfer window in order to gain more first team football, according to the Metro.

The youngster is now out with a groin problem but is expected to return to action when Arsenal face West Bromwich Albion after the worldwide break, as per the Daily Mail.

The 30-year-old has spent the majority of the season on the bench, with Gunners boss Arsene Wenger preferring Hector Bellerin at right-back.

Debuchy is also concerned for his global career, with a place in France’s squad for next summer’s European Championships at stake.

Roma are reportedly keen on Debuchy, who joined Arsenal from Newcastle for £12m previous year.

“I am putting up with it and trying to stay mentally strong, but it’s true that sometimes it’s more hard than at other times, when in your mind things are complicated”.

“Mathieu Debuchy is in a position where he is playing very little, when he does play, look at yesterday’s result”, Deschamps said after Debuchy started Arsenal’s 5-1 mauling at the hands of Bayern Munich. “I’m trying to stay concentrated until December, then after that we’ll see”. “He hasn’t lost his quality, he’s playing very little”. He has a decision to make in December or January.
