Francis Cagigao is confident he won't be short of offers after his axing by Arsenal.

Former chief scout Cagigao was "approached by a lot of clubs" during his time at Arsenal - a period that represented the large majority of his working life.

Now unattached, he is looking forward to his next challenge following his abrupt departure from the Gunners.

"I didn't feel it was right at the time to move to any of those clubs," Cagigao told BBC Sport.

"Now I'm a free agent I can look at those offers with a different perspective. I'm one of those people who finds it difficult to switch off so I need to take a step back, reflect and then I'll be ready for the next project.

"You can't afford to be bitter in life. You have to have a thick skin and get over things quickly. I'm proud of my personal achievements and I feel very privileged to have worked for Arsenal - a club which gave me so much and where I was able to progress."
