The Frenchman's initial contract was to expire in the summer and he was widely expected to quit the club but he signed a two year contract extension.
However things could have been different if the Frenchman left with PSG in contact with him about taking over from Unai Emery.

“There have been contacts with PSG.” When asked why he was nervous about committing the next two years of his managerial career to the Gunners, Wenger added: “Yes I hesitated about signing a new contract for personal reasons.
