Former Arsenal midfielder Liam Brady will reportedly return to the club to oversee the club's youth recruitment.

Brady, 59, previously held a senior position in the club's academy, but left the Gunners last year.

However, according to The Mirror, Brady will shortly resume a position with the club which will combine ambassadorial work with overseeing academy recruitment.

Brady will also arrange loan deals for academy players as well as attempting to tie down the youngsters to long-term contracts.

Brady scored 43 goals in 235 appearances for Arsenal between 1973 and 1980.
