Arsenal are set to disappoint Olympique Marseille over plans for William Saliba.
Saliba is on a straight loan at OM this season, where he has been outstanding at times.
OM would like to buy Saliba outright - or at least keep him for next season - but will face disappointment on both fronts, says L'Equipe.
Arsenal are happy for the defender to fulfill his loan, but for the moment will insist he join the Gunners next season.
For his part, Saliba is happy with Marseille, though accepts he's under contract at Arsenal.
