Sagna’s demands

LONDON. — Bacary Sagna has reportedly told Arsenal he wants £120 000 a week, a £6 million signing bonus and a testimonial to stop him walking away from the Emirates.The France international is out of contract at the end of the season and has already been offered huge sums to play on the continent.

Sagna has been offered deals worth £20 million net by Monaco and Galatasaray, according to the Daily Star, which will put £100 000 into his bank account every week. Real Madrid, Manchester City and Chelsea are also following developments but the 31-year-old right-back, who signed from Auxerre in 2007, would ideally love to stay where he is and finish his career as a Gunner.

He also wants a testimonial as he feels he has shown loyalty to Arsenal and manager Arsene Wenger when others have walked sway because of the lack of trophies in the past nine years. Arsenal, however, have not been willing to offer Sagna more than £60 000 a week and it seems unlikely they will cave in to the defender’s demands even though he is highly regarded at the club. — Metro.
