Theresa May is about the only person not to have commented on Arsene Wenger’s departure from Arsenal and may be the only person who hasn’t applied for the job. Some who have, however, are:
Luis Enrique, the former Barcelona boss and formerly odds-on favourite to take over at Chelsea, who is on a two-man hit-list with Joachim Low…
Mail on Sunday
…however, the Gunners are set to miss out on Max Allegri, Juventus boss, and his opposite number at Napoli, Maurizio Sarri, because Chelsea want one of them to replace Antonio Conte…
Sunday Times
…although Conte’s departure is being delayed by a rumoured £10m pay-off, which curiously the same amount Arsenal are paying Wenger…
Sunday Mirror
…Boris Johnson, the soon-to-be-sacked…just kidding. Unai Emery, the soon-to-be-sacked Paris St-Germain head coach named Wenger as his replacement…
Goal
…but it seems he read the tea leaves wrong. PSG want him to become president…
Sunday Mirror
Maybe Andres Iniesta, 33, is going to be next Arsenal boss. The Barcelona midfielder isn’t revealing where his future lies until the end of the week. Perhaps the Gunners offered him 2,000,001 bottles of wine to seal the deal?
Sunday Express
One man not replacing Wenger is Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho and he has told Anthony Martial, 22, that he can do one in the summer if he wants to.
Sunday Times
Another coach not replacing Wenger is Rafa Benitez who believes Newcastle United must re-sign Kenedy, 22, on loan from Chelsea as they can’t afford a permanent deal. Or is he just seeing how deep Amanda Staveley’s pockets really are…?
Mail on Sunday
And finally…
Stoke City are all heart and are cancelling his loan deal from Paris St-Germain. Apparently, he’ll be excluded from the rest of their Premier League season. Just like Stoke will be excluded from the Premier League next season.
