Premier League: Swansea sign Arsenal goalkeeper Fabianski
Swansea City have completed the signing of goalkeeper Lukasz Fabianski from Arsenal. The 29-year-old Poland international will join the Welsh club on a free transfer when his contract with Arsenal expires at the end of June. Fabianski's last game for Arsenal was the FA Cup win over Hull City, the match which ended a seven-year spell with the North London club. "The main reason I came to Swansea was because I want to be the number one goalkeeper," he said. This transfer increases speculation over the future of first-choice Swansea keeper Michel Vorm. The Dutch goalie has been linked with a move to Liverpool under former Swansea manager Brendan Rodgers. He has been Swansea's first-choice keeper since joining in 2011. Fabianski, who joined Arsenal from Legia Warsaw in 2007, made only one Premier League appearance this season. "I want to play week-in, week-out. It's going to be a real fight, but I'm not afraid of that," Fabianski said. "Competition is always good, so I think everyone will take positives from that. I'm excited. I've already asked for the pre-season programme to see how it looks. I'm really looking forward to starting with my new team-mates and I think it's going to be a fantastic new chapter in my life. I will be working hard for the club, giving everything every single day." Swansea are 150/1 at Bet365 to achieve a top-four Premier League finish next season.
