Arsene Wenger says the deadline for Mathieu Flamini’s decision on his Arsenal future will be enforced, and that the French midfielder’s fate will be known by Saturday at the latest.
The 24-year-old has been deliberating over his long-term prospects and is out of contract at the end of the season, and with Juventus reported to be keen on securing his services Wenger said early in April that he wanted final word from Flamini by the end of the month.
However, April 30 came and went and there has still been no official statement from The Gunners, although Wenger expects to be able to rectify that very soon.
“The latest is that we are at the end of April but it is still not sorted out,” admitted Wenger.
“Certainly we should get an answer today or tomorrow.”
Wenger added: “I'm always positive because I believe the link he has with the club will be stronger than all the other different attractions that he can have.
“I know that if it's down to football then he will stay here. If it's down to football or financial resources he might not stay here.
“He is free to choose a different direction, everybody is free out of contract and you have to respect that.”
