Reports circulating in England suggest that Arsenal could consider parting ways with manager Mikel Arteta at the end of the season if he fails to deliver the Premier League title. The claims—yet to be confirmed by the club—come amid increasing pressure on Arteta as the title race approaches its decisive final weeks.
According to multiple reports, ARSENAL’s hierarchy is said to be assessing long-term plans and potential successors, with former club captain and current Como head coach Cesc Fàbregas emerging as a surprise candidate.
Fabregas, who spent eight years in North London and remains a popular figure among supporters, has impressed during his early managerial career in Italy, earning attention for his tactical clarity and player-development approach.
Arteta, appointed in 2019, has overseen a significant rebuild at the Emirates Stadium and guided the club to a second-place finish last season. Arsenal are again firmly in the hunt for the title, but expectations have risen dramatically after heavy investment and steady improvement under his leadership. Failure to capitalise this season, the reports claim, may lead the board to question whether Arteta is capable of taking the final step.
No official comment has been issued by the club, and sources close to Arteta insist he remains fully focused on the run-in. Nevertheless, speculation around his future has intensified, particularly as rival clubs continue to evolve and competition at the top grows fiercer.
Why Arsenal should move on if Arteta fails to win the title
While Arteta has undeniably transformed Arsenal, there is a strong argument that failing to win the Premier League this season—given the squad quality, depth, and years of tactical continuity—would justify a managerial change.
ARSENAL now possess one of the league’s strongest squads, much of it hand-picked for Arteta’s system. After four full seasons, the team no longer fits the profile of a project in progress but of a side expected to deliver major trophies. If they fall short once again, it may signal that Arteta has reached his ceiling: capable of competing, but not conquering.
A bold, fresh managerial voice—such as Fabregas, who understands the club’s culture yet offers new ideas—could reinvigorate the team and push them beyond “nearly” status
