Petr Cech: I'm now playing for my Arsenal future

Petr Cech admits he's playing for his future at Arsenal.

The 36-year-old goalkeeper has less than 12 months on his existing deal and faces renewed competition following the Gunners' decision to sign Bernd Leno from Bayer Leverkusen for £19.2million in the summer.

Cech's performances have not been without the odd scare but three successive wins have lifted the team to seventh in the table.

Asked whether he was any clearer where he would be playing next season, Cech said: “I'm in the last year of the contract so I guess it depends on my performances, the way I play and the way I stay fit throughout the season. Then we'll see what happens next."
