Wenger 100% focused on Arsenal amidst England rumours

Arsene Wenger says his number one priority remains the Arsenal Football Club.

Wenger is again being linked with the England job following Sam Allardyce's forced resignation on Tuesday but the Frenchman insists he is fully focused on his role with the Gunners which has now ticked over into 20 years.

"I'm focused 100% on Arsenal and I will always give my priority to this club and nothing will change," he said after tonight's 2-0 Champions League win over FC Basel.

"Of course I am flattered that my name is linked with the job.

"Until the end of this season I'm here. And I am completely focused on that. What happens then is not decided – but I do know the words of God Save the Queen!"

Theo Walcott scored a double as the Gunners recorded their first European win of the 2016/17 season to join French giants PSG at the top of Group A on four points.
