Did you expect anything different?
Nevertheless it would still be the first time he hasn’t seen out the full length of a contract.
Only if you discount the time he was sacked…which is incidentally the reason about 90% of managers don’t see out their contracts.
I’ve always thought it was an overblown sentiment about Wenger anyway. He’s always been in the job he wanted to be in anyway.

Well 10% do switch clubs and I am sure Wenger had plenty of offers to move away from Arsenal as well.
It is not overblown sentiment. It’s loyalty towards Arsenal and a general principle he has which is quite admirable.
I can name managers who have walked out for less.
Like I say, he had the job he wanted. No reason for him to leave. If those other jobs had been more enticing he would have gone and not stayed out of blind loyalty.

I don’t know what is more enticing in footballing world than getting to manage Real & Bayern.
Obviously, to Arsene Wenger, what he had at Arsenal was more enticing.
Yes chump change and ungrateful & disrespectful fans. Sure

Where the heck is he?
If I had a pound for everytime someone asked this question…
You would have 17pounds?
Why would Wenger leave a job at Arsenal where he is so well paid with no pressure to win at all ? Yeah he could have taken a job like Real Madrid but ultimately would have been given the arse within a 3 year period.
Hey, that would get me almost 2 drinks in London. That’s a lot of money!
