Gunners look to talks with Wenger about the future

Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis has predicted the club will make a collaborative decision with Arsène Wenger over whether he continues as manager beyond the end of next season. Wenger favours waiting until the end of this campaign before making a final call - as he did when his previous contract expired in 2014 - but Gazidis and Arsenal are confident that they will have time to prepare should their longest-serving manager decide to step down.
