Arsene Wenger spotted watching Arsenal at Emirates for first time since leaving in 2018

Arsene Wenger made it a Christmas to remember by returning to Emirates Stadium for the first time in over four years on Boxing Day.

The legendary former manager, 73, left the Gunners at the end of the 2017/18 season after 22 years at the helm. The Frenchman won three Premier League titles and the FA Cup on seven occasions during his time at Highbury and the Emirates.

Despite his vast success while transforming Arsenal - and English football on a broader level - Wenger left under a cloud after the north Londoners finished outside the top four for two consecutive seasons. He became FIFA's chief of global football development after leaving the Gunners and previously admitted he had no plans to come back to attend matches.
