Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger open to 'crazy' management return

Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says he's open to a management return.

Wenger has refused to rule out a return to management after three years and counting away from the dug-out after leaving the Gunners in 2018.

Speaking at the UK premiere of his film ' Arsene Wenger : Invincible', the former Arsenal boss was asked whether he sees a return to the dug-out anytime soon.

"I'm crazy, I'm crazy enough to be crazy and to make a crazy decision," Wenger responded.

"But overall I would say no, I am determined at the moment not to do it - maybe a national team at some stage for a term.

"At the moment, I am involved in projects with FIFA and want to get to the end of it, yesterday we launched an academy online to give a chance to everybody in the world to develop as a football player - that is, for me, more useful now.

"I made one thousand two hundred and thirty five games for Arsenal, and overall in my career two thousand games - if I manage ten more it will not change my life."
