The former Arsenal boss, who won three Premier League titles and seven FA Cup trophies with the Gunners, has taken a sabbatical since leaving the London club last year but maintains a desire to take part in football's showpiece tournament.

The 69-year-old, who previously managed AS Monaco, is set to take up a post with FIFA as a technical director later this month, according to the Mirror, but has hinted that he could return to the pitch side ahead of the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.

"Hopefully you will see me, touch wood, in Qatar in three years' time."
