Arsene Wenger has paid his emotional final goodbye to Arsenal as he left the training ground for the last time on Monday.

The Frenchman made one final trip to London Colney to clear out his office and take home his remaining belongings.

He arrived at the training ground at 10am and spent four hours talking to his friends before packing all of his stuff.

First-team coaches Steve Bould and Boro Primorac were in attendance with Wenger, who brought two cars to ensure he had enough space for his souvenirs and memorabilia.

During his time at London Colney, he walked around the training pitches for a final time.

As he departed, a group of passionate Arsenal fans greeted him at the gates to pass on gifts and collect his autograph as Gunners boss for one final time.

Wenger, who has previously said that the last departure from the training ground would be especially emotional, put on a brave face when talking to supporters.

Arsenal were expected to announce Mikel Arteta as Wenger's replacement later this week - but the deal has since gone cold, with Unai Emery now the favourite.

The club were in talks with Arteta, who has been working with Manchester City as an assistant coach, for several days as they looked to thrash out an agreement.

City had insisted that they would not stand in the 36-year-old’s way but it now appears they will keep their man.
