According to Arsenal.com, the 22 year Polish international today signed a “long-term contract for an undisclosed fee”. Fabianski joins Arsenal from Legia Warsaw, with whom he won the Polish Premiership in 2005-06. He was also named best keeper in the Polish Prem in 2006 & 2007.
This is interesting. It was obvious that Poom was never going to stay long, but the fight for #2 is wide open between Fabianski and Almunia. Perhaps that fight will also keep Mad Jens on his toes. A little strong competition for the starting role, and the upcoming Euro 2008 tournament, could perhaps bring about a return to 2005-06 form for Lehmann. One can only hope.
