Teasing his exclusive interview with the US President, Morgan also released a photo of himself holding an Arsenal shirt with the name 'Trump' on the back while sitting beside the billionaire.
He said: 'The moment I invite President Trump to be Arsenal's new manager - because he'd build a strong defensive wall, have an attacking philosophy and want to win big trophies at all costs.'
Earlier this year Wenger refused to step down and insisted the club's turmoil had merely strengthened his resolve to remain as manager.
Arsenal are currently trailing three points behind arch rivals Tottenham and five behind fourth place Liverpool, who occupy the final Champions League spot. But when asked in January if this could be his final season following a campaign of adversity, Wenger said: 'No, that's not the way I respond.
'I agree completely that 2018 until now has not been very positive but I am long enough in the job to know that what is important is how we respond to it and to focus on the performance.
'My personal situation is a bit secondary to all of that, what is important is how the team responds and what we make of 2018.
During the interview Trump also apologised for retweeting videos posted online by Britain First and said he did it because he is a 'big believer in fighting radical Islamic terror'.
The 71-year-old was speaking to Morgan in Davos, Switzerland, and eventually said he would apologise if the far-right group was seen as being 'horrible and racist'.
It comes after the politician landed himself in hot water after he retweetedthree clips which purportedly showed 'anti-Muslim' material. Trump said that he retweeted the videos because he is a 'big believer in fighting Islamic terror' and also said he is the 'least racist person that anybody's going to meet'.
And just hours after the interview was aired on ITV this morning, Ms Fransen hit back at Morgan and demanded a sit down with him following the 'horrific accusations' he made.
Speaking outside a court in Belfast, where she faced a hate speech charge, she said: 'I have challenged Piers Morgan to sit down with me and to discuss these absolutely horrific accusations that I am a horrible nasty racist - something I wholeheartedly refute.'
If you're telling me they're horrible people, horrible racist people I would certainly apologise if you would like me to do that. President Donald Trump
But Piers quickly replied on Twitter and wrote: 'Here's my apology to her: 'Sorry I wasn't more offensive about you'.'
It comes after the President, who also met Mrs May at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Thursday, said: 'I know nothing about them and I know nothing about them today. Other than I read a little bit.
'I guess, again I'm in the United States, so I didn't read as much about it, perhaps it was a big story in Britain, perhaps it was a bit story in the UK.
'But in the United States it wasn't a big story. I did a retweet. When you do your own tweeting, or you do your own social media, it's fine.
'When you do those retweets it can cause problems, because you never know who's doing it to start off with.
'I don't know who they are, I know nothing about them, so I wouldn't be doing that. I am, as I say often, the least racist person that anybody's going to meet.
'Certainly I wasn't endorsing anybody. I knew nothing about them. They had I guess a couple of depictions of radical Islamic terror.
'Radical Islamic terror, whether you like talking about it or not Piers, it's a fact.
'You look at what's going on in UK and you look at what's going on all over the world, you can try and shield it.
