The return of ex-midfielder Gunner will be announced in the coming days and will take over Arsène Wenger's relief.
Mikel Arteta has agreed to be the replacement of Arsène Wenger and become a new Arsenal coach, which would no longer be the right hand of Pep Guardiola at Manchester City to move to direct the London team.
Although it has not yet signed the contract, Arteta's return to Emirates Stadium will be announced in the coming days.
The ex-midfielder is well respected by Arsenal's executive president, Ivan Gazidis, who believes that a younger coach, working with the rest of the technical management, Sven Mislintat and Raul Sanllehi, will be important to rearm the London squad.
Arteta is expected to arrive with his own technical staff, with some information pointing to Santi Cazorla as one of the possible members of it. Meanwhile, we will have to wait to see what happens with Steve Bould and Jens Lehmann, who are currently in the club's sports organization chart.
Arteta has emerged as the first choice to train Arsenal after Massimiliano Allegri has decided to continue leading Juventus. Luis Enrique was also tested, but Raúl Sanllehi, who coincided with the coach during his time in Barcelona, warned that it was difficult to work with him.
Mikel Arteta left Arsenal in 2016, when he retired from professional football, having played 150 games for the Gunners, scoring 16 goals and conceding 11 assists.
