Almunia heads for Arsenal exit

Manuel Almunia has been told he is surplus to requirements at the Emirates stadium, and is set to quit the club in the January transfer window when it reopens.

There are multiple reports emanating from Spain that Atletico Madrid and Malaga are both chasing the shot stopper.

Arsene Wenger has placed his trust firmly in new number 1 Lukasz Fabianski, which has left Almunia frustrated on the bench.
