Swansea City sign Lukasz Fabianski on a free transfer from Arsenal

Swansea City have signed goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski from Arsenal on a four-year contract, the Welsh club have confirmed.

The 29-year-old will join on 1 July on the expiration of his Arsenal contract to end a seven-year spell with the north London club, one that he signed off on with a FA Cup final victory over Hull last earlier this month.

Wenger hails FA Cup victory as Arsenal's most important trophy

Arsène Wenger described Arsenal's 3-2 victory over Hull City in the FA Cup final as a "big moment of happiness", and even went as far as to suggest that the club's first major piece of silverware in nine years was the most important in his time at the club.
Arsenal had to show all their fighting qualities on a sapping day at Wembley, after finding themselves 2-0 down inside eight first-half minutes, thanks to goals from James Chester and Curtis Davies. Wenger admitted feeling "shock" at the blistering start made by Steve Bruce's side and fearful that his "nervous" players would not overcome the setback.
However, Santi Cazorla's rasping free-kick after

Arsène Wenger: I have given Arsenal my word I will sign new contract

Arsène Wenger has promised Arsenal he will sign a new deal to stay on as manager beyond this season, he revealed on Friday.
The Frenchman's contract runs out in the summer and an extension has remained unsigned as Arsenal's Premier League title challenge has unravelled in recent months, leading to suggestions Wenger might be ready to leave after 18 seasons in charge.
However, the 64-year-old now looks certain to

Luis Suárez says Liverpool have surprised even themselves with title run

Luis Suárez has admitted Liverpool are punching above their weight to be competing for the title against big-spending clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester City and acknowledged that this season has surpassed all of his expectations.
After a season that began with him serving a 10-match ban for biting Branislav Ivanovic and having a transfer request rejected, the Uruguayan goes into Sunday's crucial meeting with Chelsea at Anfield as the favourite to win the Professional Footballers' Association player of the

Wilmots: Januzaj's chosen Belgium

Manchester United winger Adnan Januzaj has chosen to play international football for Belgium, according to coach Marc Wilmots.

The 19-year-old's breakthrough into the Old Trafford first team at the start of this season started the debate over which country he would go on to represent.

Born in Brussels, Januzaj is also able to play for Albania, Kosovo, Serbia and Turkey, while he was strongly linked with selection for England after

Lukas Podolski double eases Arsenal past Hull in FA Cup final rehearsal

Arsenal maintained control of their Champions League destiny with a clinical victory over Hull City.
Lukas Podolski scored either side of half-time after Aaron Ramsey got his 16th goal of the season to keep Arsène Wenger's men in the top four ahead of Everton. Hull were by no means outclassed but were guilty of failing to take their chances early in the contest.
Steve Bruce will pray his side are sharper in front of goal when the teams meet again in the FA Cup final on 17 May.
Arsenal weathered an early flurry from Hull and a

Aaron Ramsey ready for Arsenal's Wigan semi and could play at Everton

Aaron Ramsey is on course to return for Arsenal in their FA Cup semi-final against Wigan Athletic a week on Saturday after coming back into full training, and Arsène Wenger is even hopeful that the midfielder could be available for Sunday's vital Premier League fixture at Everton.

Manchester City offer Arsenal's Bacary Sagna three-year deal

Bacary Sagna has been offered a three-year deal by Manchester City and he will consider whether to become the latest Arsenal player to move between the clubs in the summer. The 31-year-old full-back remains locked in contractual stand-off with Arsenal, the club he joined in 2007 and his current terms are set to expire in June, making him a free agent.
Arsène Wenger, the manager, has indicated a readiness to break the club's general policy of granting only one-year extensions to players in their thirties and he is extremely keen for Sagna to stay. The France international has

Chelsea hit Arsenal for six to humiliate Arsène Wenger in his 1,000th game

Arsène Wenger's 1,000th game will always be remembered for The Mysterious Case of the Wrong Card, but Arsenal should probably just be grateful the sideshow was so intrusively farcical, and the refereeing so birdbrained, it might spare them even greater scrutiny of their own deficiencies. Ignore, for one moment, Andre Marriner's contribution to a wild and eccentric afternoon. The real story here was of Arsenal capitulating, once again, in one of the major fixtures.
Add this to the 6-3 at Manchester City, the 5-1 at Liverpool, and not forgetting the
