And to this day, Guendouzi has avoided posting messages unless he uploads a symbol to his Instagram stories when the Gunners beat Chelsea 2-1 in the FA Cup final last month.
Now he’s back discreetly with just a picture of him with France.
The 21-year-old is expected to leave, but PSG appears to have withdrawn.
CHANGES IN THE BELL PRINTER
PSG have reportedly presented Hector Bellerin £ 30m after wasting Thomas Meunier on a loose move to Borussia Dortmund.

DO YOU HAVE AN OFFER?
Hector Bellerin is reportedly in a position to leave Arsenal for Paris Saint-Germain this summer.
Football London says the 25-year-old right-back will leave the Gunners after a nine-year period.

“Eleven matches in September will be played behind closed doors without any regular spectators in the UK being able to watch those matches by legal means.
“As a matter of urgency, high-level supporters are urging the Premier League to solve this problem.Don’t stop enthusiasts from seeing their groups as a global pandemic.
“It would be a disastrous resolution through the Premier League and attention must be paid to the hobby.”

Gareth Southgate called Ainsley Maitland-Niles to let him know that he would be called to the England squad when he was celebrating his own birthday.

“I was just looking on my phone. I didn’t know what to say to him.
“I wouldn’t say I’m nervous, I just don’t have words to answer.So I’m sitting there thinking, “Is this real?”
“It didn’t make sense to me at the time. It’s almost too smart to be true.
“It’s my birthday, I had the guy from the match, I scored a penalty, then a reminder of England, all on the same day.It’s crazy.”
“I left him for about five minutes because I didn’t know what to say.I literally had no words for him, my hands froze.So I hung up the phone, locked it and thought, “Surely not!”»
