Arsene wenger hints at continuing with coaching amid real madrid link

Arsene Wenger has hinted that he may continue his coaching career, despite being linked with the vacant managerial position at Real Madrid.

Wenger, who has been out of management since leaving Arsenal in 2018, has been mentioned as a potential candidate to replace Zinedine Zidane at the Bernabeu. However, in an interview with beIN Sports, the Frenchman seemed to suggest that he may not be ready to retire from coaching just yet.

"I'm not sure I'm ready to stop," Wenger said. "I'm still enjoying the game, I'm still passionate about the game. I'm still involved in the game, I'm still watching the game, I'm still analyzing the game. So, I don't know if I'm ready to stop."

Wenger also praised Real Madrid's current squad, saying that they have "an incredible team" and that it would be a "great challenge" to manage them. However, he stopped short of confirming whether he would be interested in the job.

"I think it's a great team, an incredible team," Wenger said. "But I'm not sure if I'm the right man for the job. I think it's a great challenge, but I'm not sure if I'm ready for it."

Wenger's comments will likely fuel speculation about his future, with many fans and pundits wondering whether he will make a return to management. Despite his age (he will turn 73 in October), Wenger remains a respected figure in the football world and has a wealth of experience and knowledge to draw upon.

It remains to be seen whether Wenger will ultimately take the reins at Real Madrid or pursue another coaching opportunity. For now, it seems that he is keeping his options open and is not ready to rule out a return to management just yet.
