Ajax fullback Hatem Trabelsi has received a contract offer from Arsenal.

The 29-year-old has been a long-term transfer target for Gunners manager Arsene Wenger.
Trabelsi boosted his reputation with a starring role for Tunisia at the World Cup and his agent Franklin Sedoc confirmed Arsenal were leading a host of English Premiership clubs in the chase to sign him.
Sedoc told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "There's a contract ready for him at Arsenal. I can show you that.
"I get calls from English clubs every day. Manchester City and West Ham have been in contact.
"Hatem definitely wants to play in the Champions League and he's not going to stay in Holland."
