Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has confirmed the club are still trying to agree a new contract with forward Theo Walcott.
Walcott's current terms expire next summer and discussions have been ongoing during pre-season, with the Gunners keen to extend his stay at Emirates Stadium.
Having seen Robin van Persie, who was in the same contract situation as Walcott, leave for Manchester United this week, Wenger is wary of also losing Walcott.
