Mathieu Debuchy has revealed he will hold talks with Arsene Wenger before January and admits he may have to leave Arsenal for first-team football.
The 30-year-old, who has started just two Premier League games this season, has been pushed down the pecking order at the Emirates Stadium following the emergence of Hector Bellerin.
And with his place in Didier Deschamps' France squad for Euro 2016 under threat, the full-back feels he needs to find a new club if he is not guaranteed playing time under Wenger.
"At the moment, I need game time," Debuchy told French radio station RMC. "The past two games, I haven't been in the [France] squad.
"Everything is clear. I need game time and that's why I'll have to discuss it with the coach soon. We will see what offers there are between now and [January] - if there are any."
Debuchy, who joined the club from fellow Premier League outfit Newcastle, admitted he would consider staying in the top flight, adding: "I love England and the league so yes, of course.
"After that, if I have other offers ... return to France? Why not? We'll see."
