Many feel even when the Frenchman steps down from his managerial role, he will remain with the club in some capacity.
And Wenger feels he will hand the baton onto somebody who knows the club well, and he has named five potential successors in the shape of Thierry Henry,
Steve Bould, Tony Adams, Nigel Winterburn and Lee Dixon.Henry admitted on Friday that he would love to return to North London in the future, and Wenger said: "I can see that happening.
"I believe at some stage the legacy here has to go to some people who have had a big influence at this club.
"I will have to stop one day and maybe it will be me working with them.
"Thierry loves the game. Does he love to suffer? That's what he has to show as a manager.
"But it is not just him. I believe that Bould, Adams, Winterburn and Dixon can all be managers. Do they want to do it?
"First of all it has to be a choice of life. Being a manager is a sacrifice of the rest of your life. Not everybody is ready for that.
