Former Valencia boss Marcelino is the latest name to be linked with the manager’s position at Arsenal, having shot-up to third-favourite with the bookmakers.

Could one those really be the former Valencia coach?



Life at Mestalla was not always rosy and his style of football was criticised, but Marcelino led Valencia to back-to-back fourth-placed finishes, with the club having come 12th in each of the two seasons before his arrival.

But after a series of clashes over squad planning in the summer and a difference in opinion over priorities with owner Peter Lim (who according to Marcelino, did not even congratulate the coach for the cup win), he was sacked early this season.

Reports in Spain claim that that the 54-year-old may have already been approached by the Gunners, as they draw up a list of candidates for the role.

He was the coach charged with overseeing an ambitious sporting project which finally looked to see Valencia back in the big time and as well as bringing about a remarkable recovery after a slow start last season, he also ended the campaign by beating Barcelona and winning the Copa del Rey.
