Laurent Koscielny hints at future Arsenal exit

Koscielny admits he may not retire with Arsenal

Laurent Koscielny hints at future Arsenal exit

03 August 2018 - 10:14

France international Laurent Koscielny has admitted that he could pursue a fresh challenge away from the Emirates once his Arsenal contract concludes in the summer of 2020.

  • Arsenal linked with new shotstopper as backup to Raya
  • Juventus and Roma to battle for 20yo Arsenal star

  • The centre-back has been with the Gunners since the 2010/11 campaign and during this period, he has managed over 300 appearances while helping the team to three FA Cup titles.

    Despite this, there has been criticism from a section of the Gunners faithful and the 32-year-old has now hinted that he may not retire with the north London club.

    "I'm under contract until June 2020. Afterwards? I'm thinking of moving on, but I do not know where," Koscielny toldĀ Nice-Matin. "This is not relevant anyway! Then there will inevitably be a lot of question marks."

    Koscielny suffered a serious Achilles problem during the Europa League semi-final against Atletico Madrid earlier in May and this forced him to miss the World Cup with France, who went on to become champions.

    He is presently on a lengthy route to recovery after undergoing an operation but a quick return may witness him feature for Arsenal before the turn of the year.
