Brazil coach Tite in talks about sensational Arsenal move

Brazil coach Tite is in talks about a sensational move to Arsenal.

Tite is set to leave his position with Brazil after this year's World Cup in Qatar, and, according to Globo journalist Eric Faria, he could be heading to Arsenal.

Arsenal technical director Edu has a good relationship with Tite as they previously worked together in the Brazil setup and at Corinthians.

It seems highly unlikely that Tite will take over as Arsenal manager given the club's upturn in form recent under Mikel Arteta.

Faria said: "There is already a negotiation of Tite to work in English football. To work at Arsenal. He worked with Edu Gaspar. There is the intention, negotiations have started."

Tite has been in charge of Brazil since 2016 and won the Copa America in 2019, while his team reached the quarter-finals of the 2018 World Cup.
