Ljungberg returns to Arsenal as Under-23 coach

The 41-year-old Swede, who coached Arsenal's Under-15 team in the 2016-17 season, was part of "The Invincibles" side who won the north London club's last Premier League title in 2003-04.

"He understands the club's values and how important it is to give young players the opportunity to grow and develop," Arsenal academy manager Per Mertesacker told Arsenal's website.

"Everyone knows Freddie loves the club and we look forward to him developing his career with us."

Ljungberg played for Arsenal from 1998-2007 and made 216 appearances, scoring 46 goals. He was named the Premier League's player of the season in 2001-02.
