Arsenal's Coquelin looks likely to head to Valencia

It is reported that Valencia had initially offered a loan deal until the end of the season, including a fee of £2.6m to navigate Financial Fair Play regulations. 

However, it appears that has changed to a permenant move, with the Frenchman's transfer allegedly in the region of £10.5 million after Valencia beat Premier League side West Ham to his signature. 

Coquelin has been at the Emirates since he was 17 years of age after signing from State Lavallois in July 2008 following a successful trial.

Having various loan spells away at Lorient, Freiburg and Charlton, the 26-year-old has gone on to make a total of 159 first-team appearances under Arsene Wenger, eventually becoming part of the first team in the second half of the 2014-15 season.
