According to Goal.com, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger could step down as the coach of the London side if the team fails to win the FA Cup title or even qualify for Champions League.

The Frenchman is believed to have hinted to some people that he might be considering bringing an end to his 18-year-reign as the Gunners boss is they end up the season trophy-less.

Though, Chief executive Ivan Gazidis explained in January that the hierarchy were "comfortable and relaxed" about the fact the manager's deal was due to expire in the summer. "Arsene will be extending with us. And at the right time we will make that announcement," said Gazidis.

Wenger who was meant to have signed a contract extension worth £7.5 million-a-year but is believed to be stalling on putting pen to paper,over the uncertainty whether he still has the backings of the fans.

The results of the last four matches of the season, which culminate in the FA Cup final against Hull City on May 17, are now set to determine whether the Frenchman formally commits to a deal that would extend his reign to a remarkable 20 years.

The players will return to training at London Colney on Wednesday morning as they begin preparations for Sunday’s home match against West Brom,after being give a two-day off,following the victory against Hull on Sunday.

Already Arsenal are believed to be drawing up possible targets,should eventually Wenger walks at the end of the season.
