Arsenal have lost U18 coach Kwame Ampadu to AS Monaco.

Monaco have confirmed that Arsenal's Under-18 head coach Ampadu has joined Thierry Henry's coaching staff at the Ligue 1 club.

Former Arsenal and France forward Henry was confirmed as Monaco's head coach on Saturday after Leonardo Jardim was sacked by the Ligue 1 side on Thursday.

Ampadu has left his role with Arsenal's youth team to join Henry in Ligue 1, with Benfica's U23s coach Joao Carlos Calado Trahlo also joining the former Gunner.

Kwame - father of Chelsea player Ethan Ampadu - made two appearances for Arsenal between 1988-91 before going on to become a regular at both Swansea City and Exeter City.
