Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger was still almost fired, explains today’s “Sun”. The Frenchman has finally lost the leadership support of owner Stan Krownke and CEO Ivan Gazzidis, which led to the official release of Wenger’s departure at the end of the season.

It came after negotiations between the two countries, which reached a deal, according to which the French manager will receive 11 million pounds, which are given to him under the contract for the last year that will not be executed and he will leave and thus avoid humiliating dismissal after 22 years of faithful service. Wenger had no desire to break with “gunners”, all the more so that Arsenal still has the chance to qualify for the Champions League in Europe League where it is in the semifinal against Atletico Madrid.
