  • Forest owner 'dreams' of Edu as international partner
  • Arsenal chief would assist Marinakis' sporting projects
  • Role would not be specific to Nottingham Forest
  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    According to Brazilian outlet UOL, Marinakis is looking to offer Edu a CEO-type role specialising in international football across his business group. The Greek owner would see Edu as his 'right hand-man' in the sporting sector of his company.

  • Evangelos MarinakisGetty

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Marinakis currently owns three clubs across Europe, with the 57-year-old having stakes in Greek side Olympiacos and Rio Ave in Portugal as well as Nottingham Forest. Therefore, Edu would potentially be assisting Marinakis at all three clubs instead of just Forest specificially.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    Having made his name as a midfielder for Arsenal, Valencia and Brazil among other sides, Edu was the director of football at Corinthians. He then had a three-year stint as the general coordinator for the Brazilian national team before joining Arsenal's board in 2019.

    WHAT NEXT FOR EDU AND ARSENAL?

    It is currently unclear whether an official approach has been made to Edu, or whether the Brazilian would have to relinquish his role at Arsenal should he take up Marinakis' offer. However, any speculation could prove disruptive to Arsenal in the midst of the summer transfer window.
