The highly-rated Moroccan forward - who has scored 50 league goals for the French champions - was the subject of the longest running transfer saga of last summer, with Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Sunderland just three of a long list of clubs believed to be chasing his signature.
However, the 26-year-old ended up going nowhere after the Ligue 1 club slapped a hefty price-tag on his head, and he has since enhanced his reputation after scoring twice in the Champions League as les Girondins finished top of their group that also included Juventus and Bayern Munich.
Chamakh's contract expires at the end of the current campaign, fuelling speculation that Laurent Blanc's side will cash in on their prized asset, with the Gunners once again linked with the front-man, as well as Liverpool and European champions Barcelona.
"I’d like my situation to be fixed quickly, both for me and the club," he told RMC Radio.
"If I’m not staying I want the club [Bordeaux] to have time to replace me. I’m still thinking about it, it’s not an easy decision which you take on a whim.
"I still have two to three weeks to sort things out. Whatever happens, by the end of January I will give my answer to Triaud before speaking to the media."
