Bordeaux Want Silvestre Included In Arsenal's Chamakh Bid - Report
The Gunners have seen their bid for the striker rejected, but things will change if they add their French defender to the deal...
Bordeaux have told Arsenal that their €8 million bid for Marouane Chamakh will only be accepted if Mikael Silvestre is thrown in as well.
With Emmanuel Adebayor edging closer to a move to Manchester City, Arsene Wenger is keen to bring Chamakh in as his replacement.
However, according to The Sun, Bordeaux will only sell the Moroccan striker if Silvestre, who signed on at the Emirates only last summer, is included in the deal.
With Arsenal having already signed Thomas Vermaelen, opportunities could be limited for Silvestre this season, but it remains to be seen whether Wenger wants to hold on to him to add depth to the squad.
Chamakh only has one year left on his contract, so Bordeaux are keen to sell him now rather than lose him for nothing after the upcoming season.
