'We need to have as few events as possible': Arsene Wenger wants a World Cup or Euros EVERY summer as former Arsenal boss calls for the Nations League to be scrapped in latest idea for a major shake up

Arsene Wenger believes there should be a World Cup or European Championship every summer, in his latest idea to radically freshen up football.

The former Arsenal boss, who last week suggested throw-ins should be replaced with 'kick-ins', believes the Nations League should be scrapped to accommodate the drawing up of a new international calendar.

Wenger was appointed FIFA's head of global football development last year and believes his new proposals can improve the game.

Throw-ins - Teams should be able to kick the ball back into play instead of throwing it back in, if they are inside their own half.
