Arsenal chief Dick Law lifts lid on Wenger’s relationship with the board

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has a strong backing from the club’s board, according to the Gunners’ main transfer chief Dick Law.

The Frenchman’s future at the Emirates Stadium remains clouded in mystery ahead of the end of the season, with his contract due to expire this summer.

Despite reports that Wenger will likely agree an extension to his deal at Arsenal, there has been no confirmation from either side and fans have grown increasingly impatient with the manager after a disappointing season.

Wenger also made headlines this week by appearing to reject the club’s demands that he work under a Director of Football, but Law insists there are no issues between the board and the boss.

‘He has strong backing from the board, and strong support from the fans,’ Law told GloboEsporte.com.

‘Now, the fundamental issue is that the biggest critic of him is himself. He wants to win.

‘He suffers when we do not win. But right now, I think the results will tell. The game against Manchester United was crucial.

‘The game on Wednesday (against Southampton) will be another test.’
