Johan Djourou may be moving from Arsenal to Hannover on a loan deal within the next 48 hours, with the Bundesliga side keen on securing a move for the centre-back in the January transfer window.
The 25-year-old has only made two appearances for Arsene Wenger's side this season, and has not appeared in a single Premier League game despite the club's early struggles in the season.
Despite his lack of game time, Hannover are "very interested" in a short-term move for Djourou, but club president Martin Kind confirmed there is no deal in placefor the Switzerland international yet.
