Manchester City’s assistant manager, Mikel Arteta has been appointed as head coach for Arsenal on a three and a half year deal.

Arteta replaced caretaker manager, Freddie Ljungberg who took over following the sack of Unai Emery at the end of the month.

 

 

The former Gunners player leaves his role as supporting to Pep Guardiola to help Arsenal redeem their place in the ongoing Premeir League where his new side is 10 th on the League table.

Arteta returns to the club for whom he played 150 games between 2011 and 2016, winning two FA Cups and two Community Shields in the process.
