L’Equipe reported this week that Arteta is among a long list of candidates that PSG could consider to replace Pochettino at Parc des Princes.

Should they land the Spaniard he could look to take one or two Arsenal stars with him – while also using his new club’s considerable wealth to net some of the Gunners’ transfer targets.

So just for a bit of fun, or not so much if you’re an Arsenal fan, let’s take a look at what Arteta could do with PSG next season.

The French club will surely look to sell Keylor Navas this summer, ending the current uncertainty between the sticks and committing to the younger Gianluigi Donnarumma as their No1.

Arteta could then have some fun with full-backs Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes – with both being young, coachable and potentially devastating going forward.

Presnel Kimpembe and Marquinhos will play at the back, although the latter will be desperate to forget about his performance against Real Madrid last week.

Arteta, 39, could look to pair Marco Verratti with Gunners transfer target Ruben Neves – with the Portuguese ace possibly leaving Wolves this summer after five years at Molineux.

He could then look to land Martin Odegaard as his No10.

The Norwegian has thrived this season under Arteta’s tutelage and would cost a fortune, but PSG are notorious for having cash to burn.

Bukayo Saka will have one year remaining on his Arsenal contract come the summer, and despite loving his boyhood club, could maybe be tempted by some glitz and glamour across the Channel.

Neymar may well be the lone survivor of PSG’s current front three – with Kylian Mbappe set to be out of contract and Lionel Messi reportedly desiring a return to Barcelona.

The Brazilian would still line up on the left under Arteta, but the Spaniard would be left needing a new striker.

He could turn to Real Sociedad’s Swedish ace Alexander Isak, who the Gunners reportedly have their eyes on at the moment.
