Former Arsenal left-back Kieran Gibbs looks set for a major career change as an 'on-air talent' at Inter Miami, a report has claimed.

The former England international joined the MLS side in March 2021, having made 27 league appearances since his arrival.

The 33-year-old spent 10 years at the Emirates, lifting the FA Cup three times during that time.

Gibbs set for major career change

Whilst Gibbs has not announced his retirement from football, MLS journalist Tom Bogert claims that he will take on a new role at the club following his contract termination.

Bogert tweeted: "Inter Miami defender Kieran Gibbs is transitioning to an on-air talent role with the club. Gibbs and Miami have agreed to a mutual contract termination to take him off the roster."

Arsene Wenger expressed his sadness after Gibbs left the club for West Brom in 2017, revealing it "hurt more" than losing Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to Liverpool.

Wenger told Sky Sports: "Overall it's true that with Gibbs [it hurt] more than Chamberlain because he had been educated at Arsenal from the age of 10.

"When he arrived he was a left-winger. I transformed him into a full-back because he was not necessarily rated as a guy who would make it as a left winger but I saw something in him that was very intelligent, with pace, that made me feel he could make it as a left-back."

Fast forward six years and Mikel Arteta has transformed Arsenal into serious title contenders this season, as the Gunners eye their first domestic title since 2004.

Their recent 4-2 win over Aston Villa leaves them two points clear at the top of the Premier League table.

New signing Jorginho became the hero after scoring the winner at Villa Park.

They travel to Leicester next as they look to extend their lead over second-placed Manchester City.
