Man United cult hero 'accepts offer to join Mikel Arteta's coaching staff' as replacement for Carlos Cuesta

A former Manchester United player has accepted an offer from Arsenal to join Mikel Arteta's coaching staff.

The Gunners were on the lookout for a new assistant coach to support Albert Stuivenberg after Carlos Cuesta left to take charge of Parma.

Arsenal have elected to bring in a former international star who played against them on several occasions.

He was also a team-mate of Arteta's earlier in his career.

Arteta will hope that adding further experience to his backroom staff will help Arsenal in their quest to win the Premier League title.
