Chelsea FC’s Sokratis Papastathopoulos has hinted on his next move after exiting Arsenal.
Sokratis who now has 2 years contract with the club, hinted that he would like to play in Asia or the United States when his contract with Arsenal expires.
Sokratis joined the Gunners in the summer from Borrusia Dortmund and has established himself as an important player under Unai Emery. He’s made 26 appearances across all competitions thus far, scoring twice and proving to be a solid option at centre-back despite the Gunners’ continued struggles defensively under their new Spanish head coach. The 30-year-old who has partnered well with Laurent Koscielny at the back has admitted he would be open to leaving the club in the near future.
“In the summer I will be 31, I have two years of contract with Arsenal, then I would like to play in the US or in Asia,” he said.
“Greece, in the team of my city,” he added.
Sokratis will lead his side on Thursday when they take on Rennes in the Europa League round of 16 first-leg clash before hosting Manchester United at the Emirates three days later.
