(GSM) – Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will sit down with the club’s officials over the summer to discuss his future at Emirates Stadium. The French tactician’s contract ends in 2011, but he is seeking a possible extension to that deal.
Wenger has done a great job re-establishing Arsenal as a major English and European club during his 14 year-service in North London, having moved to English football in 1996. However, Arsenal have been struggling for five consecutive years without a trophy.
The current young team at Wenger’s disposal has been known for its free-flowing football and attacking style and the 60-year-old coach admits he would not walk away before they land a major piece of silverware.
He told the Mail On Sunday, “This summer or in the autumn we will talk.
“My personal future will depend on the capacity to win trophies but also on whether this team is improving year after year, because we are still very, very young.
“Ideally I would not want to leave without this generation winning a trophy.”
