Arsenal’s manager, Arsene Wenger is in line to get a contract extension at the Emirates, as the club’s chief executive, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ivan-c17215 Gazidis has hinted the club could be looking to ask him to extend his stay even further.
The Frenchman went on to sign on as Arsenal’s manager in 1996 and his current contract with the team is set to run out in 2014.
However, the way things are going, we could end up seeing Wenger stick around at the club for well over that time period.
Gazidis, when explaining the reason for the team considering to ask Wenger to stay on, is reported to have said: "It's not a sense of sentimentalism, not a reward for our services, it's a belief that we have an incredible manager who loves this club and
is the best man to lead us forward"
"We're really confident about the direction that the club is heading. We're coming through strongly and we believe we're really well placed. We hope and believe that Arsene will be a part of that as we move forward.”
"At the same time, as a club, we have to make sure that all of the things that Arsene has brought to the club are enshrined in our DNA to make sure that when the day comes when Arsene decides it's time to hang up his boots - I don't know what the expression
is as a manager - that we are in a position to take his ideas and work forward.”
Despite the Gunners not having won any silverware with Wenger in 2005, they have gone on to evolve as a team over the years that he has been with them.
He helped the team win a number of trophies earlier on in his career, but it seems like he is building the team for the future, which could see the Gunners withstand the harshest of circumstances.
Nonetheless, given the fact that he always manages to make the top four is one of the prime reasons to want to keep him around. At the same time, should he end up breaking the trophy drought this season, hardly anyone would argue that Wenger is not the right
man for the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684.
