The 50-year-old fears his Turin bosses are planning to call time on his successful reign this summer.
The Italian, allergri, who ended Tottenham’s dreams of Champions League glory at Wembley in midweek was linked with Arsenal last year before Wenger’s FA Cup triumph earned him a new two-year contract at the Emirates.

The Italian led Juve to three successive Italian League and Cup doubles plus two Champions League finals and also won the Serie A title while at AC Milan.
His ruthless streak, talent for organisation and tactical nous, as showed against Spurs, has won him a number of admirers on the Arsenal board.
