Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger is unsure if Marouane Chamakh will be playing for the Gunners next season.

It is suggested Chamakh, 28, has infuriated Wenger after he was pictured smoking a shisha pipe following last Saturday's 2-1 defeat at Queens Park Rangers.

The striker's future at Emirates Stadium has been the subject of conjecture for some time, as he has struggled for form and regular first-team action.

Wenger has admitted to his disappointment in the photo of Chamakh and refused to confirm whether or not the Morocco international would remain at the club this summer.

"It's (smoking shisha) not the best thing to do," Wenger said. "Will he stay at club next season? It's too early to say. We want him to focus completely - without smoking."
