Arsenal have named Cesc Fabregas as their new captain, replacing defender William Gallas on a permanent basis.
Gallas, 31, was stripped of the captaincy for Saturday's 3-0 defeat at Manchester City following controversial comments about his team-mates.
But Wenger revealed the Frenchman will play in the Champions League against Dynamo Kiev on Tuesday.
Wenger said: "Fabregas will be the captain, permanently. I do not have to explain to you why."
