Arsene Wenger Confirms Freddie Ljungberg's Return to Arsenal in Coaching Role

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has confirmed former Gunners star Freddie Ljungberg is helping the club's under-15 side as he looks to qualify for his coaching badges.

Simon Collings of Hayters Teamwork confirmed the news on Friday, and Wenger informed the media his old charge has taken a role with the youth team as he looks to begin a career from the touchlines:

Ljungberg arrived at the north London club in 1998, winning two Premier League titles and three FA Cup crowns during his nine-year stay with the club before moving to West Ham United in 2007.
