Santi Cazorla has reaffirmed his faith that Mikel Arteta will be a great coach for Arsenal.

“Yes, I believed he would become a manager in the future. Even when I was playing with him, he showed great leadership in dressing room,” the Spanish midfielder told Goal.

“Some say it’s a gamble for Arsenal to appoint him, but I believe it’s a reasonable challenge. He also worked as a coach under Pep Guardiola.

“I believe he can become a great coach.”

He added: “It’s not easy for any manager now to be like [Arsene] Wenger or [Sir Alex] Ferguson. I can’t anticipate how long he’ll stay at Arsenal, but I believe he can also make great career at Arsenal, and he’s a proper one for Arsenal. I hope Mikel leads Arsenal well.”

Cazorla also talked about playing for Arsenal one more time.

“I don’t know if it’s possible or not, but I want to play one more game for Arsenal before I retire,” he said. “It was a deep regret that I could never have a proper goodbye.

“Arsenal was the biggest club I ever played for. I’m proud that I was an Arsenal player. I’m especially grateful for Arsenal fans who supported me even after I left the club. I wish I can be part of the Gunners family in the future again.”
