Patrick Vieira

Vieira won three Premier League titles under Wenger and is now in third season as manager of New York City FC following a spell in charge of youth development at Manchester City.

When asked if he could see Vieira succeeding him, Wenger replied: "He works in the moment in New York and he works for Man City. He's a guy who has the potential one day, yes.

Wenger maintains he has not privately made up his mind on his future but will consider fan opinion when he decides whether or not to leave Arsenal in the summer when his contract expires.
