Unemployed former Arsenal star shows off his skills as he takes up shock new sport to play against NATO SOLDIERS

LUKASZ FABIANSKI has shown off his skills in a shock new sport following his West Ham release.

The former Arsenal goalkeeper has left the Hammers after seven years with his contract set to expire.

Fabianski, 40, was a firm fan favourite at the London Stadium, having made 195 Premier League appearances for the club.

He is keeping himself active while unemployed and has taken up BASKETBALL.

The Polish star has signed up to play for Gortat Team in a charity match against a team made up of NATO SOLDIERS.

The match took place to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Poland’s accession to the North Atlantic Alliance.

Fabianski could be seen hitting the court, dribbling and shooting the ball.

He was not the only famous footballer to be included in the team either.

Former Borussia Dortmund and Poland international Jakub Błaszczykowski was also pictured lining up with Fabianski.

It was a successful night for Fabianski and Co as his side ran out 67-64 winners at the Atlas Arena in Lodz, Poland.

Fabianski has previously spoken about his love of the American sport and revealed how he got into it.

He said: “I played basketball in primary school, and when Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen were winning NBA championships with the Chicago Bulls my interest grew in the sport.

“I started to follow basketball and wanted to be one of them. Playing basketball from an early age with my brothers (Bartek and Arek) has definitely helped me in certain aspects of my football career.

“For a basketball player footwork is very important and also your handling, while the physical training you have to do in basketball is very similar to that of a footballer.

‘I’ve played since then, and I’ve followed the NBA closely. When I get the chance to shoot some hoops I do it!”

Meanwhile, Fabianski has already rejected a move back to Poland after an offer from Legia Warsaw.

Club sporting director Michal Zewkalow revealed that the veteran stopper wants to stay in England.

He told Sport: “Lukasz called back two days after my call.

“He said clearly that he is not coming back to Poland.

“For private reasons, he wants to stay in England for a few more years.”

Fabianski played for Arsenal between 2007 and 2014 but only made 32 appearances in the Premier League for the club.

He was never able to pin down the No.1 spot while at the Emirates but proved himself a top goalkeeper at his next club, Swansea City.

The former Polish international spent four years in Wales before joining West Ham following the Swans’ relegation to the Championship in 2018.
