Gallas set for Gunners extension

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger will discuss a new contract with defender William Gallas before the end of the year.

The 32-year-old Frenchman is in the final season of a four-year deal and is free to talk to other clubs in January. His future at the Emirates Stadium looked uncertain last season after some outspoken comments about his team-mates led to him being stripped of the captaincy.
