Bordeaux lining up move for Arsenal's Mikael Silvestre
Published 00:00 11/07/09 By By John Cross
Mikael Silvestre is a target for French champions Bordeaux.
Arsenal defender Silvestre, 31, has struggled to hold down a regular place after his move from Manchester United last summer.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has also splashed out £11million on Belgian defender Thomas Vermaelen who, like the French international, can play in central defence or left back.
Silvestre has not been a hit with the fans and that has led to Bordeaux believing they may be able to snatch him on a free transfer.
Arsenal signed him on a two-year contract last summer without paying a fee.
