Former Arsenal winger Andrei Arshavin admits he may quit football after having his contract terminated by Kuban Krasnodar.

Arshavin, 34, who starred for Zenit St Petersburg before making 153 appearances for the Gunners over five seasons, is now without a club.

And after never playing a competitive game for the Kuban after signing in July 2015 he concedes it may be time to retire after a 16-year professional career.

'If I get one, I will study the offer, otherwise I might quit football,' he told Sport Mediaset.

Arshavin joined Arsenal for £15m in one of the most hectic winter deadline days of all time in 2009, but had to get used to a completely different feeling seven years later on Monday.

'Kuban Krasnodar would like to thank Andrei Arshavin for the time he spent in a yellow and green shirt and we wish him all the success in his future professional career, in whatever role he may undertake,' a statement from the club's press service read.

His career in the Premier League started superbly following an excellent Euro 2008 tournament with his country, scoring four goals at Anfield and delighting Arsenal fans with his creativity.

However, form and fitness soon faltered and he moved back to Zenit on a free transfer in 2013.

Arshavin made 51 appearances over two seasons before another move, but it now looks like he will call time on his career.
