Mikel Arteta suggests he would be open to managing England in the future
Arsenal manager has strong ‘feeling’ for the countrySpainard was open to playing for England in 2010
Mikel Arteta has suggested he would consider managing England at some point in the future because of “the feeling” he has for the country.
The Arsenal manager, who once explored the possibility of switching allegiances from Spain to England as a player when Fabio Capello was in charge, confirmed he was not one of the 10 candidates interviewed by the Football Association in its search for Gareth Southgate’s successor. Arteta welcomed the appointment of Thomas Tuchel and said that although he understood the argument that the England manager should be homegrown, he dismissed suggestions that it was an indictment of coaching standards in this country.
