Arsene Wenger has confirmed that the Arsenal board will review his position as manager at the end of the season.
The Frenchman signed a two-year extension in the summer to extend his 21-year reign at the club.
But, speaking on Thursday at the club's annual general meeting, he suggested that talks would take place when this campaign concludes - something he confirmed in a news conference.
"I want to see what the board thinks of my performance," Wenger said.
"After that we decide where we go from there. My desire has always been to respect my contracts, but that is what I meant."
'I will always love this club'
Last season, the Gunners finished fifth in the Premier League, failing to qualify for the Champions League. It was the first time they have finished outside the top four since Wenger joined in 1996.
At the end of a campaign that saw Wenger face fierce protests from fans calling for him to leave, Arsenal finished 18 points behind champions Chelsea, but beat the Blues 2-1 to win the FA Cup.
On Thursday, Wenger told shareholders that the current side has "something special" and he believes there is "a chance" of success this term.
"My hunger, my commitment is bigger than ever," he said. "I question myself a lot, don't worry, I will sit down every year to see where I go.”
