Arsenal have taken another step in strengthening their off-field structure, with Maurizio Micheli officially beginning work at the club as part of the recruitment and scouting department. The move underlines the club’s continued focus on long-term planning and talent identification.
Softfootball earlier reported that Arsenal were close to sealing a deal for the highly regarded scout, and his arrival now confirms the club’s intent to build a strong and experienced recruitment network. Micheli’s track record at Napoli is expected to add valuable expertise to Arsenal’s scouting operations.
According to Fabrizio Romano via his official X handle, The former Napoli top scout has started work with Arsenal this winter, Romano posted:
Maurizio Micheli has started his work at Arsenal as part of recruitment and scouting team under Andrea Berta. All documents were signed earlier this month to let Micheli leave Napoli and try new chapter at #AFC, as agreed in November.
The Gunners have also been active in identifying and securing young talent, reinforcing their future-focused strategy. The recent signing of the Quintero twins is the latest example, a move that head coach Mikel Arteta has reportedly been excited about as part of Arsenal’s long-term vision.
With key additions both on and off the pitch, Arsenal continue to show a clear commitment to sustainable growth, blending elite recruitment with youth development as they plan for continued success in the years ahead.
