Arsenal has hired Leicester City's head of technical scouting Ben Wrigglesworth to their first-team video scout.

Leicester City is currently five points clear of third place Arsenal.

"After three-and-a-half unbelievable seasons, working with amazing people, I am now starting a new chapter," Wrigglesworth wrote.

"It was a very difficult decision, leaving Leicester, but I had to take an opportunity that doesn't come round often.

"I only wish the best for Leicester in the future and will always be eternally grateful to them for getting me to where I am."

Wigglesworth helped bring in Riyad Mahrez and N'Golo Kante.
