Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has agreed a new two-year contract, extending his 21-year reign at the club.

Arsenal are planning to make an official announcement on Wednesday.

The Gunners were fifth in the Premier League this season, the first time they have finished outside the top four since the Frenchman joined in 1996.
