The 34-year-old specialist coach will be in charge of improving Arsenal’s attack starting next season
Arsenal have carved out a five-point lead at the top of the Premier League ahead of reigning champions Manchester City and plan to continue their purple form as they chase their first league title since 2003.
Summer signing and star striker Gabriel Jesus suffered a knee injury during the World Cup, and his presence in attack was sorely missed during the Gunners’ 0-0 draw with Newcastle last Tuesday.
Despite still having a host of attacking options, including Bukayo Saka, Eddie Nketiah and Gabriel Martinelli, Arsenal will be keen to boost their attacking line during the January transfer window.
