The French boss is now the fourth favourite to lose his job before anyone else as he faces the prospect of key players leaving the Emirates on the cusp of the season.
Bookmakers William Hill have dramatically slashed their odds on Arsene Wenger to become the first Premier League manager to lose his job this season.
The news comes amid reports that Arsenal are on the verge of losing Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri to Barcelona and Manchester City respectively.
Wenger's odds were 33/1 before the latest transfer developments but now stand at just 10/1. His odds of lasting the season are 1/6, and 7/2 to face the exit before the end of the campaign.
William Hill spokesman Graham Sharp said: "Should the Gunners get off to a slow start pressure will mount inexorably on Arsene Wenger, in which circumstances it is not impossible to envisage an end to his reign at Arsenal."
Wenger has historically had some of the longest odds in these fields but this may be a sign that his power and influence at the Emirates could be waning.
Three managers are fancied to leave before Wenger: Blackburn boss Steve Kean is 13/8 to leave before anyone else, while QPR's Neil Warnock can be found at 2/1, and Newcastle's Alan Pardew is currently valued at 4/1.

AbdulWakeel If Arsene exit would be of good to the gunners,he should leave then.To me,I see no good in being a fan when peoples happinness are beind changed to sorrow after arsenal's 90 minutes on the pitch.I believe we all know the problem of this noble club and the manager himself knows.Fellow gunners,lets stop hiding behind a finger,its either Arsene enters the market for real players or leave the players to go and make their careers more meaningful.Apart from these,arsenal might remain trophyless,the players medaless and the fans more happiest,to say. I trick my heart for Arsenal.UP GUNNERZ!!!

mkonesi My Brother, we have been doing this for 6 years, would you continue riding a Bus with a shaky Driver, No, you would demand a change, No problem give Wenger the job of academy coach and Scout leader as appreciation.
