Thousands of Arsenal fans were left stunned as the rumours that Wenger had resigned, were brought to fruition, and were announced true. The reasons behind the resignation are unknown, but the message from some quarters was that Wenger was frustrated with the lack of silverware, and also needed more free time in which to spend with his family.
Arsene during his time at Arsenal won three Premier League titles despite not spending as much as his rivals. The Arsenal Legend released a statement today ‘After a decade at the club I think it is about time I have a bit of a break. I need to spend more time with my family because I am not getting any younger, my days are numbered.’ It is widely expected that the French manager will takeover as the manager of his native country's national side but he spoke out in his statement regarding this ‘I’ve heard the rumours concerning me taking over as the manager of the French national side. I have not been approached and I am not looking to return straight to football so quickly.’
Arsenal.com also released a smaller statement
We were saddened to hear of Arsene's resignation from Arsenal, but we accept this, and we understand anyone coming in will have to face the burden. We will not rush to name a successor, and will reveal our plan of actions in due course.
