Arsenal icon Ian Wright has seen his Gunners wishes granted with the club reportedly ready to open contract talks with Mohamed Elneny.
The Egyptian midfielder is out of contract at the end of the season and was expected to bring his stint at the Emirates Stadium to a close on a free transfer, six-and-a-half years on from his arrival from Basel for a fee in the region of £5million.
However, Elneny has re-established himself in the Arsenal side over recent weeks as the Gunners continue their push for a return to the Champions League. He has played each minute of Arsenal’s last four games - a run that has seen the side chalk-up four consecutive victories including wins over Chelsea, Manchester United and West Ham United.
