Arsene Wenger To Consider Jens Lehmann For Blackburn Clash

Reports are out claiming that veteran goalkeeper Jens Lehmann could be back playing for Arsenal the next time they step out in the Premier League.

It is said that the 41-year old has a chance to be selected by Arsene Wenger when the Gunners take on Blackburn Rovers at the Emirates on April 2.

The French tactician admitted that a player such as Lehmann could be brought in as the Londoners try to get their season back on track after just one win their last six matches in all competitions.

“I’m not going to make a decision on who I will pick for the next game, we have two weeks to think about it,” Wenger said ahead of the international break this weekend.

“In training Jens Lehmann has looked like a guy who has not been involved for a long time but has kept his body fit.

“He has the basic physical fitness but he needs a bit of decision-making and practice in goal.

“Competition exists in every position and when they player is ready or when I judge better than the player who plays, they play.

“If it is goalkeepers or strikers, it is exactly the same.”
