Arsene Wenger - Football Coach

Honours
2003/2004

Arsène Charles Ernest Wenger (born 22 October 1949) is a French former football manager and player who is currently serving as FIFA's Chief of Global Football Development. He was the manager of Arsenal from 1996 to 2018, where he was the longest-serving and most successful in the club's history. His contribution to English football through changes to scouting, players' training and diet regimens revitalised Arsenal and aided the globalisation of the sport in the 21st century. Born in Strasbourg and raised in Duttlenheim, Wenger was introduced to football by his father, the manager of the local village team. After a modest playing career, in which he made appearances for several amateur clubs, Wenger obtained a manager's diploma in 1981. Following an unsuccessful period at Nancy in 1987, Wenger joined Monaco; the club won the league championship in 1988 and won the Coupe de France in 1991. In 1995, he became coach of J.League side Nagoya Grampus Eight and won the Emperor's Cup and Japanese Super Cup in his first and only year. Wenger was named manager of Arsenal in 1996; his appointment was greeted with little enthusiasm from the English media and his players alike but he became the first foreign manager to win a Premier League and FA Cup double in 1998. Wenger guided Arsenal to another league and cup double in 2002 and won his third league title unbeaten in 2004 – this was the first time an English club, after Preston North End 115 years previously, went unbeaten. Arsenal later set the record for most league matches unbeaten (49) before losing in October 2004. Wikipedia text is available under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License - Full article
