'Arsenal is my home' - Gunners cult hero hints at coaching return to Emirates as 40-year-old closes in on retirement

Premier League

Nottingham Forest

Arsenal

<p>After a 21-year-long career, Santi Cazorla is inching closer to retirement. The 40-year-old is nearing the end of his contract (2025) at Spanish second division team Real Oviedo and now he is considering his future career options. And the Spaniard, who spent six years at Arsenal, suggested he would be open to returning to the north London team eventually. </p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>When asked if he would consider a return to the Emirates, he said: "Yes, why not? Arsenal is my home. I love the club and the people, so we will see in the future. I don't know [what role I would have]. I would have to think about that but something in football for sure, because that is what I love."</p><p></p>

WHAT SANTI CAZORLA SAID

<p>Cazorla made 180 appearances for Arsenal between 2012-18, winning two FA Cups and two Community Shields. He has enjoyed a long and distinguised career and it would be no surprise to see him back at the Gunners in some way after what he did for the club.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Before he does hang up his boots, the former Villarreal star will be focusing on Oviedo's clash with Sporting Gijon in the league on January 11.</p>
