Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has revealed he does not have a succession plan in place at the Emirates Stadium as he feels that is the job of the club's board. 

Wenger put pen to paper on a new two-year contract in the summer, despite Arsenal dropping out of the top four Champions League spots in the Premier League.




The Frenchman is showing no sign of thinking about the end of his lengthy reign yet and Wenger admits he has no idea who might come after him at the club.

Carlo Ancelotti, recently sacked by Bayern Munich, has been mooted as a future Arsenal manager but Wenger, revealing no succession plan in place on his part, played down the link.
 


Wenger told beIN Sports: "I don't know who will replace me at Arsenal.

"When you are manager of a club you have to work like you're there forever, because it demands total commitment.

"I believe as well that a football club works when everyone does their own job well.

"My job is to prepare the team for the next game and be responsible for technical policy at the football club.

"The job of my board is to choose the next manager.

"I don't want to do the job of my board", the French tactician added.

Diego Simeone and Thomas Tuchel currently lead the betting in the next Arsenal manager market, with Ancelotti, Patrick Vieira and Eddie Howe also in the mix.
