World Cup champion and current New York City head coach Thiago Vieira and his wife Cheryl purchased the seven-bedroom mansion in 2010 when he relocated to the Etihad.

Some bookmakers offer a 10/1 chance that the former France midfielder, who formerly oversaw City’s development squad, will supplant the under-fire Wenger should his former manager depart the Gunners at the conclusion of the current campaign.

After relocating to New York in November 2015, Vieira, 40, spent five years in Manchester, including a season and a half as a player during which he won the FA Cup.

According to the estate agent’s description, the family property on the outskirts of leafy Wilmslow, which is on the market for a cool £2,295,000, features “an exceptional bespoke interior nestled in mature gardens.”

In addition to a double garage, the 6,500-square-foot property features landscaped gardens, a wine cellar, larder, playroom, sauna, and boot room.

There are five additional double bedrooms, three of which are en suite, along with a dressing room-turned-bedroom, in addition to the master bedroom and en suite toilet.

This week, Vieira, who won eleven major awards during his nine-year tenure at Arsenal, defended the manager who hired him in 1995, stating that Wenger was not responsible for the recent decline in form of the north London club.
