Mikel Arteta is Arsenal’s head coach, a Spaniard who returned to north London as manager in December 2019 after finishing his playing career at the club. A former Everton and Real Sociedad midfielder, he spent years learning under Pep Guardiola at Manchester City before taking charge at the Emirates.
He guided Arsenal to the Premier League title in 2025-26, and over the years he has rebuilt the squad around a demanding, structured style: a high press, positional play, and set pieces drilled to the finest detail. Saliba, Rice, Saka and Ødegaard have all grown under his guidance, and the summer 2026 additions of Hincapié, Tzolis, Bruno Guimarães and Ezri Konsa show him adding depth and variety to a group built to chase silverware on every front.
On this page you will find the latest Arteta news, press conference reactions, tactical breakdowns, team selection debates and contract talk. We cover how he sets Arsenal up from week to week and what his decisions mean for the title race, Europe and the cup competitions, all written for supporters who want more than the headlines.
