And suggest he would be interested in a January loan move back to England.

But it's claimed PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino is unwilling to lose him.

Former Newcastle ace Wijnaldum, 31, left Liverpool at the end of last season after his contract expired.

But since then only ten of his 20 appearances for PSG have been starts.

And Arsenal need midfield reinforcements, especially as Thomas Partey and Mohamed Elneny head to the Africa Cup of Nations next month.

Two months ago  quoted Wijnaldum as saying: "I can't say I'm completely happy because the situation is not what I wanted. 

"But that's football and I'll have to learn to deal with that. I'm a fighter.

"I have to stay positive and work hard to turn it around.

"I was really looking forward to the new step and then this happens. It is very difficult."

With the Qatar World Cup starting next November, Holland boss Louis van Gaal has also voiced fears about Wijnaldum's in-and-out spell with PSG.

The ex-Manchester United chief said: "Of course I'm worried. 

"I already talked to him about that when I arrived. But the alarm bells are not going off yet."
