ARSENE WENGER is set to be offered a new contract at Arsenal.
The Gunners boss’ current deal expires in 2014 and speculation has grown that he may retire.
But Arsenal’s chief executive Ivan Gazidis has backed Wenger, 62, and insists the club are committed to ending their run of seven years without a trophy.
Gazidis said: “It’s not sentimentalism or a reward for our services, it’s a belief that we have an incredible manager who is the best man to lead us forward.”
