Arsenal to offer Wenger new contract

 

Arsenal are preparing to offer Arsene Wenger a new two-year contract extension, according to The Mirror.

 

Reports suggested that Wenger would be prepared to step down from the Emirates when his current deal expires in 2017.

 

However, the club's hierarchy are keen for him to stay on in north London and are believed to be readying a new contract at the end of the season.

A 2-1 win over Everton on Saturday ended an ideal week for the Gunners on a high, with the club moving to the summit of the Premier League for the first time in over a year as a result as Arsenal aims to end their 12 year wait for a top-flight title.

 

A bright start to the season means Arsenal are currently the best rated team in the Premier League (7.23).
