Arsene Wenger reveals he rejected Man United job

In the extensive interview with The Times, Arsene Wenger was asked among other things if he ever had a job offer from Man United.

"I don't tell you that [when]. But I can tell you Man Utd offered me the job," the Frenchman confirmed.

The ex-boss also reveals he's still in contact with Sir Alex Ferguson.

"I have Ferguson's number, yes. We have a lot of respect for each other now. We had a period when it was very tough, very hot. After you're not competing any more, everyone becomes a bit more objective."

Arsene Wenger was Arsenal's head coach between 1996 and 2018 and led the team to 3 Premier League titles and 7 FA Cups.

Currently, the 70-year-old is FIFA's chief of global football development.
