Arsene Wenger has agreed a new two-year deal keeping him at Arsenal until 2019.

The Mirror claim the contract has been finalised and an announcement will be made tomorrow.

Further agreements regarding summer transfer plans and a reshuffle of Wenger's backroom staff are said to have taken place during today's board meeting.

The new contract is said to have been on the table long before last weekend's FA Cup final win over Chelsea.

However, the result has helped get many supporters back on side, providing the perfect platform to unveil Wenger's new deal.

The Mirror say Arsene Wenger held discussions with the club on Saturday and everything is now in place to make an official announcement.

The 67-year-old will remain at until at least 2019, meaning he will have two more seasons in north London.

Majority shareholder Stan Kroenke has been fully supportive of Wenger, despite calls from fans to oust the long-serving manager this season.

And when the American took control of the club outright in 2011 he lavished praise on the Frenchman, calling Wenger one of the best managers in world football.

"Arsene is one of my favourite people I have met in the last 20 years," Kroenke told The Telegraph.

"He is a great person and I love the way he handles himself. I love his focus. He is a very intelligent guy.

"You can talk to him about anything and, when he starts talking to people, I really love to listen to him. He should hold seminars he is so good at it.

"I have tremendous confidence in him. He is one of the great managers in the world.”
