Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has declared he is willing to stay at Arsenal Football Club even without Champions League Football.
The 67-year-old French man is expected to have talks with the Gunners’ board, after he confirmed he had taken a decision on his future last week, however the board has said that any decision regarding the managers position has to be mutual.
There has been growing fears amongs the Arsenal fans about the possibility of missing out in the Champions League qualification for the first time in 17 years,with the Frenchman overseeing his worst period at the club.
But Wenger is not bothered about missing out on Europe’s premier club competition and said:
“My decision will not necessarily be linked with that because I’ve done the top four 20 times. It’s more, it’s not that,” he said.
“I take a bigger perspective than that. It’s not the last result that will decide what I will do.
“It’s not [the end of the world], not any more. That was for a long time the case, but not today. Financially, I mean.
“Of course, on the sporting front it would be a blow, but financially the Champions League does not have the impact any more that it had five or six years ago because of the influx of the television money [to the Premier League].”
