Arsenal goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski may leave Arsenal in the January transfer window if he does not get enough first team action.

The 26-year-old shot stopper was Arsenal's first choice keeper in 2010, until a shoulder injury kept him out for 9 months. In that time, his position was taken by Polish compatriot Wojciech Szczesny, who has remained first choice ever since.

Fabianski wants to play at Euro 2012 and he feels that lack of match time may hamper his chances of being selected to the national team.

"That injury brought me back to the beginning," Fabianski explained. "It hurts, because I was No.1 and I lost that place not through poor form but through injury, which didn't let me play for 9 months.

"I have to fight from the beginning now and I think I can win it. Wojciech [Szczesny] wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for that incident in January. I can't complain though, that's football."

"I know that if my situation doesn't change by January, I will be thinking about it [leaving Arsenal]," he continued. "I'd have to, because I want to go to the Euros.

"That's the only way I can convince the national team coach – by playing well and regularly.

"[But] I don't want to think about this now, because we have couple of months until the transfer window. Until then all I can do is work hard in training and take the chances I get."
