Arsenal chief Ivan Gazidis is confident Arsene Wenger's current deal won't be his last with the club.

Gazidis believes Wenger will stay at the club beyond 2014.

"What I really don't want to do is have a public discussion about Arsene's contractual position," he said.

"That would be a daily, weekly fixture on the public coverage if you start getting into that. What I will say is that we think we have got a fantastic manager. We hope that he wants to do what he is doing for the long term. I believe he does.

"I think he is still ambitious, still driven and sees the potential of the club as he looks forward and I think he is very excited by that. We have a great relationship and he has a great relationship with the board as well. So, quietly and at the right time I think we will make an announcement on that when things are all put in place.

"I don't want to get into that level [whether Arsenal had made him an offer] because then it'll be 'you've made him an offer' then the next question will be 'well, what did he say?' and so on. This is going to happen very quietly behind closed doors, privately and then there will be an announcement.

"I don't even want to say [we have discussed it]. We have got a lot of confidence in Arsene that he is the right person to take the club forward and I think he will want to do that."
