Arsene Wenger has confirmed he is making transfer plans for Arsenal despite the ongoing speculation surrounding his future at the club.

A woeful run of form has left the Gunners out of Europe and off the pace in the race for the top four with a growing number of fans calling on Wenger to walk away from the club this summer after over 20 years.

But despite once again refusing to clarify what his plans beyond the end of the season are the Frenchman did confirm he is working on recruitment ahead of the summer window.

"Of course," he said when asked if he was looking at potential new faces. "I work until the last day of the season for the present and the future."

When asked if those transfer targets were his or the club's he said: "Transfer targets are the future of the club and therefore they are very important.

"What happens with me is a bit secondary, what is important is the future of the club."

Striker Olivier Giroud is a reported target for Marseille who are believed to be looking at a number of Premier League players but Wenger says he has no plans on letting his fellow countryman leave the Emirates this summer.

"I have had no approach from Marseille and we want to keep Olivier Giroud at the club," Wenger added.
