Former Arsenal Manager, Arsene Wenger as accepted the offer of Fifa’s new chief of global football development role after he agreed to terms.
The former top EPL manager is returning to football and ends the speculation linking him with a return to management as Bayern Munich boss.
The 70 year old Frenchman left the Gunners in May 2018, after 22 years in charge, three Premier League titles and seven FA Cups.
“I very much look forward to taking on this extremely important challenge,” he said.
Wenger’s new role at the world governing body will help to develop men’s and women’s football, as well as technical aspects of the sport.
He will now be a member of the technical panel of the International Football Association Board, and chairman of Fifa’s technical study group.
