The defender is ready to exit the Emirates
Stadium this summer unless the Gunners are
ready to show the ambition to fight for their first
piece of silverware in over eight years.
Arsenal defender Laurent Koscielny says he may
be forced to leave the Premier League outfit if
the Gunners do not start winning silverware
soon.
Arsene Wenger's side last won a trophy over
eight years ago - the FA Cup in 2005 - a spell that
has seen the club sell a string of top players like
Cesc Fabregas, Samir Nasri and Robin van Persie,
often to league rivals.
Now the 27-year-old, who has been linked with a
move to Bayern Munich, hopes the north London
outfit is ready to prove its ambition in the league
next season, otherwise he will look for a new
challenge elsewhere.
"I feel good at Arsenal, if we have ambition to
fight against the other teams of course I want to
stay here," Koscielny told Eurosport. "It's hard
psychologically. We are constantly pressured
because if Arsenal is not in the Champions
League it would be a catastrophe.
"I have to see if I have clubs interested in me. I
will not go to any club. I want to maybe discover
another league. Paris [Saint-Germain]? There has
been no contact yet. It is hard to not win titles
year after year. We are competitors,
professionals, we want to win. I want to add to
my list of achievements. If Arsenal cannot allow
me that, I'll seek a move elsewhere."
