Man United icon set to join Arsenal as Mikel Arteta makes another major move

Gabriel Heinze has agreed to join Mikel Arteta’s coaching staff at Arsenal, marking a significant addition to the Gunners’ backroom team ahead of the 2025/26 season.

According to David Ornstein, the Argentine coach will step in to replace Carlos Cuesta, who recently departed to take up a role at Parma.

The appointment of Heinze is seen as a strategic move by Arteta as he looks to continue evolving Arsenal’s coaching structure following another competitive season in the Premier League.
