REVEALED: Two options must be met for Arsenal to sell Saliba to Marseille | OneFootball

Arsenal defender William Saliba has told Olympique Marseille president Pablo Longoria he wants to stay.

That's according to local reporter Mohamed Toubache-Ter, who also says Arsenal are softening their stance on the France international.

Saliba, after this season's successful loan, has told Longoria he would happily remain with OM if they can reach a deal with Arsenal.

And it's now emerged that Arsenal would be willing to do business - if they can find an adequate replacement.

Saliba would also have to make a formal transfer demand for the Gunners to take action.
