Lehmann: I may retire

Lehmann: I may retire

22 January 2008 - 13:13

Arsenal backup goalkeeper Jens Lehmann has admitted that he is considering retiring from football in the summer. The German international rejected a move to Borussia Dortmund and admitted he is unhappy he is not playing for the Gunners.

  • Fabrizio Romano updates on Nicolas Jackson's future at Chelsea
  • Arsenal suffer big injury blow ahead of Fulham game
  • "If the same criteria were applied to Almunia as they are to me, I would have been back in the team a long time ago," he said.



    "But I am optimistic, and I go into every training session feeling I will soon be back playing.



    "It is highly unlikely I would join another club in England.



    "It troubles me greatly I'm not getting games, but that is the only thing I disagree about with Arsene Wenger.



    "There is a 50 per cent chance I could retire soon. It depends what offers I receive."
