Your support makes all the difference.Lukasz Fabianski. whose contract with Arsenal expires next month, has reportedly rejected the latest offer from the club as they try to keep the Polish goalkeeper.
The 29-year-old, starred in the Gunners' triumphant FA Cup campaign, and kept his spot for the final in place of the regular No 1 Wojciech Szczesny but admitted after the final that he expected to exit the club after seven years in north London, and is no closer to agreeing a new deal.
Bundesliga clubs Schalke and Borussia Dortmund are reportedly leading the race to sign him on a free contract.
"It was probably my last game for Arsenal," said Fabianski after the 3-2 victory over Hull.
"I don't know what I can say, but if I end my Arsenal career in that way then it is the best way to finish."
Despite the club agreeing new contracts with eight first-team players this season, another that could be heading for the Emirates exit is Bacary Sagna. The right-back is also out of contract next month and is reportedly close to signing a three-year deal with Manchester City.
