Arteta named new Arsenal boss - LIVE news and reaction
Former Gunners captain returns as manager after signing a three-and-a-half-year deal
www.standard.co.ukI don’t have live access to current feeds right now, but here’s a quick summary of the latest widely reported directions around Arsenal’s manager as of the most recent public updates:
- Mikel Arteta has been the Arsenal manager since December 2019, following his move from Manchester City, and has led the club through a mix of trophy success and major rebuild efforts. He remains the definitive figure associated with Arsenal’s coaching leadership in recent years.[2][5]
- In 2024–2025 and into 2026, Arteta’s position has been discussed in media cycles with debates around performance pressure, especially in the context of league results and title race momentum, but there has not been credible, sustained reporting of a definitive change in management up to May 2026.[6][7][9]
- Transfer and squad development chatter continues to accompany Arteta’s tenure, including comments from players and press conferences about ongoing team-building, injury recoveries, and tactical direction as Arsenal competes in the Premier League and Europe.[7][10]
