Steve Bould will continue as Arsenal's assistant boss under Arsene Wenger's successor Unai Emery.

Emery was named Arsenal boss in May, giving the Gunners a first new manager in almost 22 years, since Wenger's appointment in 1996.

Steve Bould was appointed assistant to Arsene Wenger in May 2012, after the retirement of the long-serving Pat Rice, and will continue as one of two assistant head coaches under Emery.

Juan Carlos Carcedo, Emery's long-time assistant, will be alongside him in the dugout.

First-team coach Pablo Villanueva, strength and conditioning coach Julen Masach, goalkeeping coach Javi Garcia and data/video analyst Victor Manas complete Emery's staff.

Bould's position in Tuesday's confirmation of Emery's backroom staff provides some continuity from the Wenger era.

Director of high performance Darren Burgess and goalkeeping coach Sal Bibbo, both of whom were appointed in July 2017, remain in place.
