Koscielny played 353 times for the Gunners and won the FA Cup in 2013-14 and 2014-15.

Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny refused to participate in the club's pre-season tour in the United States.

The 33-year-old French international is at the end of the contract at the end of the 2019-2020 season and is a declared goal for the French clubs of Bordeaux, Rennes and Lyon.

"We are very disappointed with Laurent's actions, which go against our clear instructions," said Arsenal.

"We hope to solve this problem and we will not provide any further comment at this time."

Bordeaux would have offered Koscielny a three-year contract.

The central defender joined Arsenal in the summer of 2010 for an amount of about 10 million pounds sterling.

He played 353 times for the Gunners and won the FA Cup twice, in 2013-14 and 2014-15.

Last season, Koscielny played 30 times for the club in all competitions, including one with under-21s.
