Lehmann Stays

According to reports, Germany’s Number 1 goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has dismissed rumours that he may be thinking of returning to the Bundesliga and reaffirmed his commitment to Arsenal.

The news will delight Gunners fans. The German keeper has just completed by far his best season with the club, bringing real stability to the position at a time when injuries to key back four players threatened to derail Arsenal’s ambitions. And Lehmann, who feels that even in his mid-30s he is fit enough to go on for some considerable time, will be looking forward to running out at the magnificent Emirates stadium and to the prospect of winning more trophies with the Gunners.
