Pioneering men's monthly magazine Arena is set to close after 22 years, putting up to 12 jobs at risk.

Publisher Bauer Media said today it was suspending publication of the title and would consult with staff over possible job losses.

Arena's final April issue goes on sale next Thursday, 12 March. International editions are published in Ukraine, Turkey, Denmark, Korea, Thailand and Singapore.

The twice-a-year style magazine offshoot, Homme Plus, will continue publishing, edited by Jo-Ann Furniss.

Shame, given they've managed to find a position for POP in the market with Dasha Zhukova as editor :S
