We need to have a more intense session tomorrow with them and the team before we decide, but right now, it seems positive that both can be in the squad for Sunday.”

EPL: Conte to replace Arteta as Arsenal manager on August 24, 2021 Arsenal are considering appointing former Chelsea and Inter Milan manager, Antonio Conte as Mikel Arteta’s successor.

The UK Telegraph claims Arteta now has only five games to save his job and Conte is a potential candidate to take over at the Emirates. Conte quit Inter after leading them to the Serie A title last term. The Italian was linked with a return to the Premier League with Tottenham Hotspur, but a deal never materialised. Conte won 51 of his 76 Premier League games in charge of Chelsea and oversaw their 2016/2017 title triumph, before he was sacked in 2018 |
