Arsene Wenger yet to decide on whether to sign new contract at Arsenal

Arsene Wenger has cast doubt over his future at Arsenal after admitting he has not decided whether to sign a new contract at the club.

Wenger’s current deal is due to expire at the end of season – and the Gunners are desperate for him to sign an extension.

But despite reportedly agreeing a new two-year deal last week, the Frenchman has revealed he has not made his mind up about accepting it.

‘It’s not a question of my loyalty – I want to feel I can do well for this club. It’s as simple as that,’ said Wenger.

‘I can build another new team, but haven’t got 17 years, that is for sure.

‘I can build another team because in 17 years I had a few teams, but at the minute I’m looking at the short term.

‘I will make a decision about the longer term later.’

The doubt over Wenger will cast a shadow on Arsenal’s stunning start to the season, in which they have put themselves in contention for the title.

But despite many tipping them for a first trophy in eight years, Wenger says it won’t be until the end of November when Arsenal can really consider themselves.

‘We will know more about ourselves after we have played in Dortmund at the end of November.

‘We have always had teams who played good football, but you can play 37 championship games well and lose the decisive 38th.’
