Who will succeed Wenger - Mikel Arteta?

Mikel Arteta has agreed in principle to replace Arsene Wenger and become the new manager at Arsenal. While no contract has yet been signed yet, there are reports that the announcement of Arteta's return to the Emirates Stadium will be made in the coming days.
Arteta is highly regarded by Gunners chief executive Ivan Gazidis, who believes a younger coach will slot into a modern European football structure, complemented by head of recruitment Sven Mislintat and new head of football relations Raul Sanllehi.

Club fires coach of the year

The National Basketball Coaches Association voted Toronto Raptors head coach Dwane Casey the 2017-18 Coach of the Year.
However, the second-best record in the NBA this season -- and the East's top seed -- couldn't save Dwane Casey from getting the pink slip from the Toronto Raptors. Casey, who helmed Canada's team since the 2011-12 season, owns the Raptors' franchise record for wins and made the playoffs the past five seasons. Yet, for the third straight year, and despite the No. 1 seed, Toronto couldn't make it past LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers in the playoffs.
Casey joins a list of other coaches across all sports this millennium who weren't retained following a successful season.
