Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted that he is yet to make a decision about Abou Diaby's future, but has refused to rule out offering the midfielder a new contract.
Numerous injury woes have restricted the 28-year-old to just 17 appearances over the last four seasons, and he is yet to feature for the Gunners in this campaign.
When asked about Diaby's future in this morning's press conference, Wenger said: "I had a chat with him and told him how I can envisage the future. He has to make a decision. Of course he understands completely that he has to perform and to show that he can be present on a consistent way.
"I will see where we go from there. I wouldn't like to go into details, we have to meet again to see where we go from what I told him. It has to be linked a little bit with his presence."
Diaby's injury problems may be behind him after he featured in a reserve match against Brentford this week.
