Patrick Vieira could be returning to Arsenal in the role of manager should Arsene Wenger step down at the end of the season, the Daily Mail reports.

Amid speculation the club’s bosses are looking at potential successors to Wenger’s 22-year reign, Vieira is said to be tipped as a possible replacement.

The 41-year-old is currently leading New York City and was a popular player during his time at the Emirates from 1996-2005.

Meanwhile, Anthony Martial appears to be in high demand from overseas clubs after falling out of favour at Manchester United, The Sun reports.

The 22-year-old has struggled to make the starting XI since the arrival of Alexis Sanchez – but has caught the eye of both Lyon and Juventus.

According to the paper, both clubs are set to enter the race for the forward, with Lyon tipped for a potential loan move ahead of a permanent deal.
