Arsenal are in disagreement with defender William Saliba over where to send him on loan.

Saliba would prefer a move back to his native France, while the Gunners reportedly want him to join a Championship club.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta opted not to include the 19-year-old in the Gunners' Premier League and Europa League squads, believing Saliba needs a 'transition' year before he is ready for the first team.

Saliba joined Arsenal for £27million in the summer of 2019 and was immediately loaned back to Saint-Etienne for the 2019-20 season.
