Valverde tipped as possible replacement for Wenger at Arsenal
Someone from the Gunners has reportedly phoned the Athletic Club coach
Valverde is also one of the candidates to take over from Luis Enrique at Barça
Ernesto Valverde seems to have become one of the game's most wanted managers as his contract with Athletic Club draws towards its conclusion at the end of the season.
He is one of the candidates to replace Luis Enrique to replace Luis Enrique at Barcelona at the end of the season.
Barça's interest has elevated his status and has led other clubs to look at his work... even from outside of Spain's La Liga.
According to Marca, Valverde has received a call from someone speaking in the name of Arsenal who, according to said information, are keen to see if he would be keen to move to the Premier League.
It's a move which bring Arsene Wenger's long spell in charge of the London club to an end, although everything is far from certain at the moment.
Whatever happens, it's known that Valverde has always had in his mind the idea of one day trying his hand in English football.
And Arsenal are a club with tradition and prestige, even if they are currently out of the Champions League places for next season.
There could, then, be a battle for Valverde. Who will he be in charge of next season? The betting is open.
