Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger insists that he "will always love" the club, as he reveals talks with the board are planned for the end of the season to determine his future.

Arsene Wenger has revealed that his position as Arsenal manager will be reviewed at a board meeting at the end of the campaign.

The long-serving boss signed another two-year contract extension at the Emirates Stadium in May, despite strong protests throughout the 2016-17 season for him to walk away.

Wenger, who has been at the helm for the past 21 years, hinted at the club's annual general meeting on Thursday that fresh discussions will be held in the summer to determine his future.

Asked to clarify those comments at his weekly press conference, the Frenchman told reporters: "I want to see what the board thinks of my performance. After that we decide where we go from there.

"My desire has always been to respect my contracts, but that is what I meant. I will always love this club. My hunger, my commitment is bigger than ever," he said. "I question myself a lot, don't worry, I will sit down every year to see where I go.

"The present for me is about style of play, winning trophies, winning every game. Don't think I don't know. It's essential. No matter what happens one day I will always love this club forever and be an eternal fan."

Arsenal finished outside the top four last season for the first time since Wenger took charge in 1996, leading to protests from those wanting him to quit.
