The final home opponents of the Frenchman's Arsenal reign will be Burnley, and for the visiting boss it will be a special moment
Burnley's Sean Dyche is looking forward to leading his team against Arsenal in what will be Arsene Wenger's final match at the Emirates Stadium as manager.
It was announced on Friday that Wenger will step down at the end of the season , despite having one year remaining on his contract with the Gunners.
The Frenchman has transformed the club since his appointment in 1996, leading the team to three Premier League title triumphs, including the famous 'Invincibles' season of 2003-04, when Arsenal avoided defeat throughout the entire league campaign.
The Clarets' trip to north London on May 6 will be Wenger's last home game, and Dyche is excited at being part of a historic occasion.
"He's a legend of the game, for all the questions marks, everyone will reflect on his time there. I'll be amazed if there's not documentaries about his time there," the Burnley boss told a news conference ahead of his team's match against Stoke City on Sunday
