Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta believes the 'homework' he has set his players during the coronavirus outbreak could see some of them become coaches.

With the Premier League halted and Britain in a state of lockdown, players are having to train at home.

Arteta tested positive for COVID-19 a fortnight ago but has now recovered.

"There is the psychological support that they need, which we are giving them (the players)," Arteta, who turned 38 on Thursday, told Arsenal's website.

"And as well I'm giving them a lot of homework to do because I've been reviewing everything that we've been doing since I joined.

"There are things we have to maintain doing, improve and develop, and individually they are really enjoying the challenge.

"We might get a few coaches after this virus, or at least a few players that are willing to go down that path, because I think they are really enjoying the process."
