Arsenal have appointed former Leicester City manager Lydia Bedford as an assistant coach months after she was sacked by her former club - much to the surprise of Gunners boss Jonas Eidevall.
Bedford was made head coach of the Foxes in November 2021 and was initially rewarded with a new contract for steering them to safety last term, which should've kept her at the King Power until 2024.
However, after another difficult start to the campaign for Leicester, the club announced a reorganisation with Bedford subsequently replaced by their director of women's football and former Everton boss Willie Kirk.
