It will be recalled that the likes of former Barcelona coach Luis Enrique, current Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri and former Chelsea, PSG, AC Milan, Bayern Munich and Real Madrich coach, Carlo Ancelotti was strongly being linked to the Arsenal job.

Allegri who was the favourite recently ruled himself out of the gunners job and prefers to remain at Juventus. Another strong name on the list was Enrique but some of the members of the Arsenal board who have worked with the Spaniard at Barca had maintained that it was difficult to work with him.

The new Arsenal coach is expected to bring his own backroom staff on board when he fully takes over as. Some reports are already linking Santi Cazorla as a potential addition, while the futures of Steve Bould and Jens Lehmann are yet to be sorted out.

Goodluck to him and the gunners. It is a new era at Arsenal and we wish them the very best.
