Gunners boss to assess his own performance at the end of the campaign.
Check in to Sunderland vs Arsenal
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has hinted that he may not renew his contract with the club if they fail to deliver silverware for a ninth season in a row, according to talkSPORT.
Wenger’s future at Arsenal has been under some speculation for some time, with many fans feeling the time has come for the Frenchman to call it a day at the Emirates Stadium, despite having brought the club so much success in his early years in charge.
Ligue 1 giants PSG are thought to be keen on recruiting him in some capacity, and Wenger insists he is in no hurry to commit to Arsenal, saying he will review his contract situation at the end of the season.
With the Gunners breaking their transfer record this summer with the signing of Mesut Ozil from Real Madrid for £42.4m, Wenger hinted he is under extra pressure to deliver success given the quality of players now at his disposal.
“We are in no hurry. We are in September and my contract finishes in June. There is a long way to go,” he said.
“There is no need to plan (any talks). I have said many times I want to do well with this club and in the end I will sit down and think ‘how well have I done with the team I have had?’
“That has to be sufficient for me to decide yes or no.
“One of the main judgments you can have about a manager is how well he does with his team.”
Wenger has also often been linked with a move to Real Madrid in the past, but has remained dedicated to his project at Arsenal since joining the club way back in 1996.
