On Friday night, Wenger posted a message to Instagram with the caption, "I arrived in England almost 26 years ago, in October 1996. "I had the honor of meeting Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II twice during that time. both at Windsor and Buckingham Palace.

In an ever-changing world, throughout her reign, her sense of duty and dedication to keeping the nation united were qualities I had huge respect and admiration for.

The tributes that have been paid by people from all walks of life from around the world demonstrate how much she meant to so many. I would like to send my condolences to the Royal Family and to all those who are in mourning today. "

The Queen’s passing was announced on Thursday evening. Her successor, King Charles III, said: “We mourn profoundly the passing of a cherished sovereign and a much-loved mother. I know her loss will be deeply felt throughout the country, the realms and the Commonwealth, and by countless people around the world.”
