Abel Hernandez also faces a spell on the sidelines. It could be six weeks until he returns to first-team action . Talking to France Football, the 26-year-old said: 'Bordeaux, that could interest me. Like all Ligue 1 teams. 'I have not spoken to anyone from Bordeaux on the phone. I leave that to my agent. He will inform me when there are concrete offers. 'In any case, Ligue 1 is a league that I know well and I would look very favourably on the idea of a return. My daughter is also in Paris. These are things that I must think about.'
