Arsenal interim manager Freddie Ljungberg has received his UEFA Pro License, meaning that he is not restricted to only 12 weeks in charge.
It was previously reported that Ljungberg would only be able to lead Arsenal until February due to him not having a UEFA Pro License, but The Athletic journalist David Ornstein has confirmed that he does.

This means that Arsenal do have the option of giving him the job until the end of the season, if they want to.
READ ARSENAL VERDICT
It will be interesting to see what Arsenal decided to in regard to who their next manager will be. Will they take their time and let Ljungberg have an opportunity to impress in the next few games? Or will they try to bring in a new boss as quickly as possible?
Ljungberg is looking very likely to take the team along to Norwich, at the very least, which means that Arsenal’s performance against the Canaries could hold the answer. If they fail to pick up the three points, it could force Arsenal’s hand into going for someone like Carlo Ancelotti, Max Allegri or Nuno Santo.
