No Retirement date set yet- Wenger.

The Frenchman insisted that he will not set an exact date to retire and maintained that the Gunners can still progress in the Champions League

Arsene Wenger has revealed that he has no plans to retire at the moment and insisted his decision to leave Arsenaland football management will be abrupt, rather than setting a retirement date. 


The 65-year-old recently celebrated 19 years in charge of the Gunners and it has been rumoured that the Frenchman could say farewell to the game in the near future.

However, Wenger has claimed he is finding it hard to set a retirement date and has made it clear that he will not reverse his decision once he leaves football.

"I haven't decided yet on a retirement date, I think it can be more instinctive and impulsive than that," the Frenchman told BT Sport.

"I am always scared about setting an exact date. I have heard that so many times, 'next year I will retire' and then they continue or go somewhere else.

"I think one thing is for sure that, when I retire, I will really retire."

Wenger, whose Arsenal side face Manchester United in Sunday's Premier League clash, have struggled in the Champions League this season but the Gunners' boss indicated the they can still progress from the group.

The Premier League side were beaten 2-1 by Dinamo Zagreb on matchday one, before Olympiacos proved to be too strong at the Emirates Stadium last week.

With two matches against Group F leaders Bayern Munich up next, Arsenal face a tough challenge to make it to the knockout stages, yet Wenger has stressed they should not be written off just yet.

"We are still in the Champions League, we are not out of the Champions League," Wenger added.

"Everybody writes us (off), but we are not out."
