Szczesny has been caught smoking for the second time in six months after previously lighting up a cigarette in the dressing room showers following a defeat to Southampton in January.
The FA Cup-winning shot stopper, who was fined ÂŁ20,000 for that specific incident and went on to be dropped from the team, has recently insisted that he wants to stay with the Gunners until his contract expires.
"People love to speculate and people love to gossip a bit. But I love this club and I don't want to ever leave it", said Szczesny after the club's second consecutive FA Cup win on Saturday.
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has spoken out against player smoking in the past, with England star Jack Wilshere, a close friend of Szczesny's, having been pictured smoking on two separate occasions also.
A report in The Sun claims that the latest smoking incident is "sure to annoy Wenger" who has reportedly set his sights on another goalkeeper in Chelsea's Petr Cech this summer.
