Arsenal appear to confirm Debuchy’s exit as club website misses him off name list for replica kit

HAVE Arsenal inadvertently let the cat out of the bag regarding the future of full-back Mathieu Debuchy?

The Frenchman is nowhere to be found when scrolling to add a name from the squad onto a replica kit on the club's official website.

Debuchy has been heavily linked with a move away from the Emirates, seemingly not in Arsene Wenger's plans.

The right-back is behind Hector Bellerin in the pecking order, and with Calum Chambers also able to be deployed in the role, and Carl Jenkinson on his way back from injury, it appears Debuchy's days at Arsenal are numbered.

The French international moved to the Gunners in July 2014 on a deal believed be worth around £14million from Newcastle.

But after getting injured, and then being unable to shift Bellerin from the right-back spot, Debuchy opted to join Bordeaux on loan in February this year for the remainder of the season.

He has been capped 26 times by his country, scoring two goals.

Also missing from the name-selector is forward Yaya Sanogo, but having spent time at Crystal Palace and then Charlton on loan last season, his exit may have been more-than expected.
