The Frenchman’s current deal with Arsenal finishes at the end of the season. Wenger earlier stated that he was in no rush to open talks with the club’s hierarchy.
But following Kroenke’s public support, Wenger reciprocated the gesture and went on to state that he would be happy to ‘stay at the club forever’ and hopes that negotiations for a new contract are agreed quickly.
Wenger said: “I’m very honoured to have the support of Stan Kroenke. That is something that is very positive for me.
“I would love to be here forever because that would make me immortal! I love this club of course.
“The good thing with me is I don’t need a lot of talk to extend the contract I have.
“I don’t think that’s most important thing at the moment. I said I want to focus on the quality of our season and no one can question my commitment to this club. I want to do well and the question of me staying will be secondary for that.”
