Attacking midfielder Yossi Benayoun is mulling over offers from Arsenal, Liverpool and Lille.
The Israeli schemer will be allowed to leave current club Chelsea after falling down the pecking order over the summer.
Benayoun has appeared for just a single minute of Chelsea’s campaign thus far and the Blues were preparing to include him in a potential deal for Tottenham Hotspur playmaker Luka Modric.
The 31-year-old is keen to ensure he sees more first team action and all of the three options on the table are attractive.
At Arsenal Benayoun would slot into a side desperately in need of midfield reinforcements following the sales of Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri. The switch would also allow the Israeli to remain in London.
A move to Liverpool however would represent a return to the club Benayoun left to join Chelsea in 2010 and he remains a popular figure on Merseyside.
Lille meanwhile would give the midfielder an opportunity to experience a different country and league, while also playing Champions League football.
