Arsenal to pursue City's Richards if Sagna leaves
30-year-old Sagna had joined Arsenal from Auxerre six years ago and with one year of his contract left.

Arsene Wenger is splashing money this season for Arsenal and The Gunners might battle for Manchester City's Micah Richards - if Bacary Sagna fails to agree a new deal at Arsenal, as per reports.

30-year-old Sagna had joined Arsenal from Auxerre six years ago and with one year of his contract left, the French international is yet renew his contract.

But the 30-year-old is rubbishing all claims "We are still talking about a new contract and the fact is I am still at Arsenal. I never said I wanted to leave but there are some who want to speculate as I have just a year to go," he said as quoted by www.dailystar.co.uk.

But if Sagna leaves, Arsene Wenger has his eyes on the 25-yar-old Richards who can play both as a right-back and center-back. Last season Richards was out with a knee injury and played just seven games and even in the upcoming season, a regular place is the playing XI will be a far cry for the lad from Leeds with international players like Pablo Zabaleta and Maicon ahead of him in the pecking order.

What's your reaction?
