SunSport announced today how Arsenal boss, Unai Emery, had asked the World Cup winner, THREE TIMES, to make the trip, to no avail.

Now, the Spaniard admits that he is not sure of the end of the saga of 33 years.

The team also claims that gunners know why Koscielny acted so dramatically and "out of character".

And the former head of Arsenal, Arsene Wenger, revealed that he had been stunned by the French tour.

Wenger said, "I am very surprised by the current situation.

"I do not know the whole story, but Laurent's behavior with me has always been irreproachable.I think a lot about Laurent as a man."

Koscielny believes that the North London club should allow him to join Bordeaux as a free agent with a three-year contract, while he still had a year-long contract with Emirates.

But his Chelsea striker, Olivier Giroud, his longtime team mate for the club and country, insisted "that this story certainly has more to say than we know."

Striker Giroud, 32, told The Team: "Laurent is someone very respectful, very professional and has always shown the example.

"I do not understand how this point has been reached, he has always been very grateful to the club.

"I hope both parties will find an arrangement, I know that Laurent is hurt by what is happening right now."

Emery himself said yesterday: "Koscielny started training with us this pre-season and I talked to him three times about his situation.

"We wanted him to travel with us to America on this tour, but he decided to stay in England.

"Now it's up to him and the club to fix the problem.

"He still has a year of contract and for me as a coach, he is an important player for Arsenal."
