Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is ready to relent and allow the club to accept a lucrative offer to tour overseas.
The Mail on Sunday says Wenger looks like changing the habit of a lifetime by abandoning Arsenal's tranquil pre-season training camps in Austria and joining the inter-continental globetrotters of Real Madrid, Manchester United and Chelsea on a lucrative tour in Asia or the USA.
Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis is determined to maximise the commercial revenue at the club and is expected to make a compelling case to Wenger, who, as an economics graduate, will fully appreciate the importance of adding another £10m to the bottom line of the club's profits.
