Arsenal will NOT replace head of recruitment Sven Mislintat. German specialist will leave his post on February 8.
Official statement says: “Sven has done a truly outstanding job in helping us recruit players who are making a big impact now and will do so even more in the future.
“We wish him every success for the future and thank him for his extremely hard work on behalf of Arsenal.”
Mislintat will leave London after 14 months of job. According to reports, he will join Bayern Munich. Gunners will not get compensation for his contract with another club.
Gunners, however, have decided to appoint a new technical director, who will work on youth development strategies and also on transfers.
