New York City FC coach Patrick Vieira said Tuesday no one at Arsenal has contacted him about replacing longtime coach Arsene Wenger.
“Honestly and seriously, no,” Vieira told reporters at NYCFC’s new training facility in Orangeburg, just days after being named a possible successor to Wenger.
Vieira is in his third and final season with NYCFC. With his contract set to expire at the end of the year, he said he could see himself at NYCFC beyond this season despite the swirling rumors regarding a return to his former club.
“Yeah, why not?” Vieira responded to a question about extending his NYCFC career.
