Arsene Wenger to AC Milan: The Italian side is reportedly in talks to bring Wenger to a sensational return to football.
Arsene Wenger resigned as Arsenal boss last season after 22 years in-charge of the club. He left the Gunners as the most successful manager in their history, and led them to a stunning invincibles title in 2003/04 season.
After his resignation, Wenger has given many interviews which reflected on his time at Arsenal. The French manager has also been seen in various public events.
However, Wenger has maintained silence over his future in football. He admitted that he wants to return to football and has assured the fans on various occasions that he will make a comeback ‘next year’, but gave no substantial information on his future.
However, according to French Football, Wenger is now in talks with an Italian giant for the managerial role.

Even when Milan are 4th in the league this season, the owners aren’t satisfied with the performance of the side, according to the report from France Football.
If Arsene Wenger takes over at AC Milan they’ll automatically become my favorite Italian Serie A team… I’ll be watching Emery ball and Wenger ball all in the same season. Blimey.
