Wenger confident of keeping key duo

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is confident that key duo Robin van Persie and Theo Walcott will sign new deals at the club.

Van Persie has been repeatedly linked with a move away from the Emirates, with Real Madrid and Manchester City believed to be keen on the striker.

Walcott's time in north London has also come under increasing scrutiny from the club's fans.

However, Walcott’s form has taken a turn for the better over recent weeks, and Wenger remains sure that both players will commit themselves to the club.

"With Theo and Van Persie, that will be sorted out at the end of the season," Wenger told reporters.

"Theo is playing very well. He has improved his technical level a lot, his links with other players and his calmness in front of goal. He is developing very well.

"It is something I will look to sort out very early. Yes, I am confident they will sign. To say that I am always confident, yes I am.

"We want to keep our best players."
