Wenger agrees a Two Years deal with Arsenal


Wenger agrees deal to stay at Arsenal for two more seasons
The veteran coach will sign a new contract at the Emirates Stadium ahead of the 2017-18 season after meetings at a boardroom level

Arsene Wenger is set to stay at Arsenal and will sign a two-year contract at the club, Goal can confirm.

Arsenal fans plead for Tuchel

The 67-year-old's new deal has been approved despite a boardroom split and his salary will remain the same.

Wenger and majority shareholder Stan Kroenke held a private meeting in a secret location on Monday, and the details of the Frenchman's contract were confirmed 24 hours later in a boardroom meeting.

A formal announcement is likely to follow on Wednesday. The structure of the club is set to remain the same under Wenger's management ahead of the 2017-18 campaign.

The Frenchman's future was shrouded in uncertainty ahead of last weekend's FA Cup final against Chelsea.

Arsenal emerged victorious, despite being underdogs against the newly-crowned Premier League champions, and the club are now poised to confirm Wenger's stay at the club.

Rory McIlroy needs winter break to focus on fitness

Image
Rory McIlroy feels he has been "playing catch-up" at a number of tournaments this year as his troublesome back injury has restricted his practice. McIlroy suffered a rib-joint problem back in January that forced him to take a seven-week lay-off, and he aggravated the injury during the Players Championship in May which prompted another spell on the sidelines. The world No 6 admitted at the PGA Championship that the injury had not subsided throughout the season, and that he was unable to devote as much time to practice as he felt he needed. The 28-year-old remains without a victory this year and has just two events remaining to break the drought, starting at this week's British Masters supported by Sky Sports, a tournament he committed to after failing to qualify for the Tour Championship.  "I don't feel like I can go out there all day and practice," said McIlroy, who will also play in next week's Alfred Dunhill Links Championship ...

Boxing promoter, Eddie Hearns, has confirmed that the much-anticipated rematch between Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko, will hold in Las Vegas, US, on November 11. “I’ve been in Vegas with AJ, officially applying for my Nevada boxing license to promote there and that went well,” Hearns told Sky Sports. “I met with the MGM and met with the T-Mobile Arena, Vegas is the front runner and November 11 is the date that is penciled in. “It will probably take a couple of weeks to get everything over the line, but I believe Klitschko will take this fight and believe Vegas will be the one. “AJ has been over there for about 10 days and has enjoyed himself and got to know the area a little bit. “The amount of British fight fans that would travel there, it will be a momentous occasion and one that we will savour for a long time so fingers crossed it’s a party in Las Vegas on November 11.” Hearns’ optimism about the fight holding in Las Vegas, was echoed by Stephen Espinosa who heads Showtime,...

How Kyrie Irving dominated Game 4

Image
CLEVELAND - Kyrie Irving broke his own record for points in a playoff game by a LeBron James teammate Tuesday, scoring a career-playoff-high 42 in the Cleveland Cavaliers' 112-99 Game 4 victory over the Boston Celtics. The performance helped the Cavs overcome a 16-point deficit and grab a 3-1 series lead in the Eastern Conference finals. They will try to make it to the NBA Finals for a third consecutive season in Game 5 in Boston on Thursday. Irving's previous career playoff high was 41 points, in Game 5 of the NBA Finals last season against the Golden State Warriors. That had been the most points a James teammate had scored in the postseason. In this one, Irving scored 36 of his points following James fourth foul with just less than seven minutes remaining in the first half, which forced James to the bench. Irving peaked in the third quarter, scoring 21 points on 9-of-10 shooting on a series of unrelenting drives to the basket through the Celtics' defense. Irving played th...
