Italian Serie A side AS Roma sent a classy message on Twitter to outgoing Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger ahead of his final fixture in charge of the Gunners and the post saw the Giallorossi come in for appreciation from all football fans.

Wenger takes charge of his final Arsenal game on Sunday, when the North Londoners visit Huddersfield Town  for the last Premier League tie of the 2017-18 season.

Speculation over his future is rife, with the vacant Paris Saint-Germain job the favourite according to the bookmakers but Wenger has slyly refused to reveal where the offers have come from.

There have been plenty, according to him, but he’s yet to commit and it remains to be seen if he takes a sabbatical before joining another club.

He’s repeatedly insisted he’s focused on seeing out the final days at his beloved Arsenal and will only focus on the future once his tenure in London is over.

After going the club in the 1996, Wenger led them to three Premier League titles and seven FA Cups, but success on the European stage eluded him.
