Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been left out of Arsenal's squad for their training camp in Dubai and will instead remain in London to keep up his fitness.
The forward has not played for the Gunners since their 2-1 defeat at Everton on December 6 following a disciplinary issue, which also saw him stripped of the captaincy.
Arsenal will consider offers for Aubameyang before the transfer window closes at the end of the month, and he would prefer a move to a European club.
A number of sides, including Paris Saint-Germain, Marseille and AC Milan, are interested.
Saudi Arabian side Al-Nassr are the only club to have made a firm offer for Aubameyang, though. They are willing to take the 32-year-old on loan with an obligation to buy.
Aubameyang, who has 18 months remaining on his contract, has scored seven goals in 15 games for Arsenal this season.
The Gunners' next fixture is away to Wolves on February 10, which has afforded Mikel Arteta's side time to travel to Dubai for some warm-weather training.
