Arsene Wenger had stepped down from his post as the manager of Arsenal back in 2018. Since then the Frenchman has been working with the world football governing body – FIFA.

He had been a significant figure within the squad and had held that position for 22 long years. Recently, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta expressed his desire to have him back on the team’s side since Wenger is still very respected within the circuit. Arteta hopes that he’ll be back in the future, even if it’s not possible at the present.

“He would have a great time seeing the environment he can create around him when he’s around this place, because of the respect, admiration and the love everybody at the club has for what he has done. ”

Arteta further added that he would like Wenger to be much closer to the team. If Wenger could manage his schedules, the 72-year-old might make some time for his old squad.

What I can say from my side and on behalf of everybody, is that we would be delighted to have him much closer.
