Long time Arsenal coach Arsene Wenger has hinted for the first time he would like to stay at the Gunner's side past 2014. The 63-year-old manager still has another year left in his contract with Arsenal, but due to the lack of trophies won in recent memory, he has been linked with a move outside of London club.
French side Paris-Saint-Germain has been linked with the French manager in the last transfer market, but neither party has made any official moves.
Speaking at Friday's media conference, Wenger said: "I respect my contracts. I want to stay [on past 2014] if I do well and if I consider or the club considers that I do well, that is all. I want this club to do well, that is my basic feeling. We have gone through a period that was very sensitive, we are coming out of it now, in a much stronger position financially. I believe the club is in a very strong position for the future. We have a good fan base, we have now a strong financial situation, we have good young players and a squad with a bright future with the quality of the young players we have. It is just to manage it well now."
Wenger has been at the club since 1996, he managed the club during their move to the 60, 000-seater Emirates Stadium, and has consistently been in Champions League year after year despite selling many of Arsenal's top class players.
"We focus on winning our games and then look at the results of other teams," said Wenger. "The most important in that is not to lift your head, just focus on our job and continue our strong run. We have put a strong run together and we want to use this belief in a very positive way."
