Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger reveals that he will return to management at the start of 2019.

Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has revealed that he will return to management at the start of 2019.

Wenger spent a total of 22 years as head coach of Arsenal before leaving at the end of last season.

Despite turning 69 next week, the Frenchman has no plans to retire, and has confirmed that he will be starting work once again at the start of January, with a national team role a possibility.

"Yes, it looks like it," Wenger told Bild. "I believe that [I'll] start again on Jan. 1. I don't know yet [where I'm headed]. I am rested, and I am ready to work again.

"There are associations, national teams; it could be also be [in] Japan. Thanks to my 22 years at Arsenal, I have big experience on different levels. There are enquiries from all over the world."

Wenger took charge of 1,235 matches during his time at Arsenal and won three Premier League titles and seven FA Cups with the Gunners.
