Abou Diaby appears likely to be offered a new deal by Arsenal, providing he can prove his fitness and put together a run of games before the end of the season.
Diaby s time at Arsenal has been heavily disrupted by injuries, with the midfielder featuring in just 16 Premier League matches since the start of the 2011-12 campaign.
He has been limited to a solitary League Cup outing this term, having made only one substitute appearance in the previous season.
However, Wenger hinted that a new contract could yet be awarded to Diaby, whose current deal expires in June, if he is able to make an impression over the coming weeks.
I had a chat with him and told him how I can envisage the future, said the Arsenal manager.
He has to make a decision. Of course he understands completely that he has to perform and to show that he can be present in 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.
