Santi Cazorla played four years with Mikel Arteta as Arsenal team-mate.
The 36-year old midfielder is ready to make a return as an Arsenal coach under the management of Mikel Arteta.
Cazorla spent six seasons with the Gunners between 2012 and 2018.
Mikel Arteta left Arsenal to become Manchester City’s assistant manager in 2016, before being appointed Arsenal boss in December 2019.
Cazorla admitted that he will consider working under his former teammate if he wants him at Arsenal.
“It is something that I would value tomorrow, now I am not considering it,” Cazorla said in an interview with AS.
“If I am given the opportunity and he believes that I can help him, it is something that I would not mind and would leave the door open to enjoy that experience with him.
“But there is nothing for today, it will be seen.”
“Mikel was very important when I came to Arsenal,” he added.
“I did not speak the language and he was the only Spanish [player]. It helped me a lot, both he and his family.
“We were two soccer patients, we watched games and he already had that coaching gene.”
