  • Gilberto Silva on Arsenal director links: I still do some work with the club as an ambassador. This is not something I was [thinking about doing] in the next few years, despite the fact that I have done it for Panathanaikos in the past. In the last few years, I have been on a different road in football and with Arsenal. I don’t know, I don’t know. I have done the preparation for it a few years ago and I have been [approached] by a few clubs in Brazil, but I decided not to take the position. I am not saying right now, but it’s always great to be around Arsenal even as an ambassador.”
