Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola says Patrick Vieira could handle the Arsenal job.
Guardiola has worked closely with Vieira as the Frenchman manages City partners New York City FC. Vieira is now being linked with a return to the Gunners following Arsene Wenger's decision to step down at season's end.
Guardiola admitted: “I think Vieira's already a top manager.
"With what has happened, there will be a lot of names and Arsenal will take the best decision for them.
"But of course, Patrick is ready."
