According to Le Sport, Saint-Etienne have been in contact about Wenger replacing Jean-Louis Gasset, despite him leading the club to an eighth-place finish in Ligue Une.
The club endured a turbulent season, initially replacing Oscar Garcia with former player Julien Sable who it emerged did not hold the relevant qualifications.
Wenger is expected to take some time to consider his options before returning to work.

He arrived at Nice from Pacos de Ferreira in 2015 having begun his career in his native country with ASEC Mimosas.
