AS Monaco fullback Djibril Sidibe has been unsettled by Premier League interest.
Sidibe has admitted this season that Arsenal tried to sign him last summer.
L'Equipe says the Gunners remain keen, though are not alone with Tottenham and Manchester City also in contact.
A close relative revealed: "Even if there is no certainty of playing time, there are clubs that make you think. One can imagine that if a club puts a large sum on Djibril, it is to make him play.
"Today, he still has a great place in the world hierarchy in his position. The leaders of Monaco say they do not need money, but there are proposals that you can not refuse."
