Arsene Wenger is set to hand David Ospina the chance to stake his claim for Arsenal's No.1 jersey this weekend following Wojciech Szczesny's double blunder against Southampton.

And Szczesny is facing a fresh fight to save his Gunners career with the club seeking a new goalkeeper for next season, reports dailymail.co.uk.

Szczesny is expected to drop to the bench for Sunday's FA Cup clash against Hull City, with Colombia international Ospina taking his place.

And Ospina has the chance to replace Szczesny as first-choice keeper until at least the end of the campaign if he performs well, starting in the re-run of last season's FA Cup final.
