<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Arsenal can announce it has received confirmation that Jens Lehmann will be joining German Bundesliga side Stuttgart on July 1, 2008, when his contract with the Club officially expires. Lehmann, 38, who is currently representing Germany at the European Championships, joined the Gunners from Borussia Dortmund in 2003 and went on to make a total of 199 appearances for the Club. Arsenal's departing goalkeeper is a UEFA Champions League record holder after 853 minutes without conceding a goal in the tournament as Arsene Wenger's side marched to the final in Paris in 2006. Jens was part of the Invincibles squad which completed an unbeaten Premier League title season in 2003/04 and was Arsenal?€™s hero at the 2005 FA Cup Final, saving Paul Scholes' penalty in a shoot-out win over Manchester United. Ironically, one of Lehmann's first matches for Stuttgart could be against Arsenal, when the two sides meet in at the Mercedez-Benz Arena, Stuttgart for a pre-season friendly on Wednesday 30th July. Everyone at Arsenal would like to thank Jens for his huge contribution towards the Club and wishes him the best of luck for the future.</div> [Source] [Tuesday, June 17, 2008]
