Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) have set their sights on Arsenal's Mikel Arteta as a potential successor to current manager Luis Enrique, according to fresh reports. The French giants are said to be impressed by Arteta's transformative work at Arsenal, where he has turned the Gunners into genuine Premier League title contenders.
Arteta's Rising Stock
Since taking over at Arsenal in 2019, Arteta has steadily rebuilt the squad, implementing an attractive, possession-based style of play while nurturing young talent. His efforts have not gone unnoticed, with PSG now considering him a prime candidate to lead their star-studded team.
PSG's Managerial Hunt
Despite Luis Enrique's relative success at PSG, including domestic dominance, the club's hierarchy is reportedly looking for a manager who can deliver Champions League glory. Arteta's tactical acumen and experience in high-pressure environments make him an appealing choice.
Arsenal's Stance
Arsenal, however, are unlikely to let their prized manager go without a fight. The club views Arteta as integral to their long-term project, especially with the team challenging for major honours. Fans will be hoping this speculation doesn't distract from their Premier League title push.
Could Arteta really leave Arsenal for PSG? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain – his stock in the managerial world has never been higher.
