Arsene Wenger agrees new two-year deal


Arsene Wenger will today agree a two year contract to stay at Arsenal.

The 67-year-old boss, will attend today's board meeting where his future, summer plans and a backroom reshuffle will be discussed.

But Mirror Sport understands that Wenger will stay and the deal has now been agreed with a formal announcement to follow on Wednesday.

There will be some degree of change after amicable talks between Wenger and chief executive Ivan Gazidis.

Majority shareholder Stan Kroenke has always been a huge admirer of Wenger and has been fully supportive of Wenger.

Frenchman Wenger, who joined the club in 1996, has always wanted to stay.
And while this contract was on the table long before Wembley, the FA Cup has helped change the mood among many fans.

He has held discussions since Saturday and it is understood now that everything is in place for him to stay until at least 2019.
