Edu Gaspar is widely considered to have done a good job at Arsenal since he returned to the club to help with transfers and player relations.
He’d previously been helping player relations, and solving problems, for Brazil’s national team. That added to his career as a player gave him an endless contacts lists and Arsenal have been able to use that since.
Mikel Arteta has repeatedly credited Edu for part of his own success with the Gunners and an Arsenal exit would be a surprise. However, there’s now a report from UOL in Brazil that Nottingham Forest’s owner Evangelos Marinakis wants to take him as a ‘sort of CEO’ to work as his right-hand man across his football interests.
Arsenal is obviously the most attractive club in the mix here, and the question may be whether the ‘sort of CEO’ role could be tempting.
