Former Arsenal boss Wenger top target for the Japanese FA

Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is a target for the Japanese FA.

The Daily Mail says several clubs in China are keen on Wenger – indeed he rejected an offer of around £30million two years ago to move there and opted to stay at Arsenal.

Now Japan want to bring Wenger back to the country where he worked with considerable success in the mid-1990s at Nagoya Grampus Eight.

Wenger is highly respected and regarded in Japan and he has always spoken of how he enjoyed his life there.

And the hierarchy at the Japanese FA now want to bring him back to take over the national team.
