A new name on the list added just this week, Fabio Capello has just come onto the market after leaving Chinese side, Jiansu Suning, by ‘mutual consent’ after a poor start to the season. This was his first job in management in three years since the Russia job. That, too, followed a three-year break after the England position.

Once a great manager, Capello has not been in charge of a top club since 2007 when he finished a year-long stint as manager of Real Madrid.

It’s absolutely absurd that he should be linked with the Arsenal job but the former England manager has been installed as one of the frontrunners according to the S*n who are tracking odds with a bookmakers.

Three years older than Arsene Wenger who thinks he’s being discriminated against because of his age, perhaps someone close to Wenger has imagined the link to make the Frenchman realise that his age has nothing to do with anything.

Capello announced his retirement from football not long after being linked with the Arsenal job.
