Mikel Arteta will be named the next manager of Arsenal in the coming days.

Arteta is currently an assistant with Manchester City.

In the next few hours, Arteta will meet Josh Kroenke, the son of owner Stan Kroenke who has been in London for days.

Arteta was close to getting the job 18 months ago before they hired Unai Emery.

Freddie Ljungberg has been interim manager since firing Emery.
