James King is set to join Arsenal as their director of football operations.
King previously worked at the club but left to join the Professional Footballers' Association as their general counsel.
The role he is coming back to at the club is the position left vacant by Richard Garlick, who became Arsenal's managing director when CEO Vinai Venkatesham left the role at the end of last season.
Garlick joined Arsenal in 2021 from the Premier League, where he had been director of football.
