And now, according to former Arsenal great Marc Overmars, the Frenchman is the ‘excellent choice’ for the job as long as he has the energy for it. Speaking at the ASPIRE4SPORT event, he said:

''I think that he would be an excellent choice for the English.

''Maybe it's time for him, if he has the energy for it.'' 

Meanwhile, Gareth Southgate has taken over as the temporary England manager as the FA continues to search for a suitable candidate. Five days ago, Wenger heaped praise on English football and the country in general. He also admitted that he could one day manage England if he had no club commitments.
