ヴェンゲル「We have NOT agreed Arshavin fee」

ゼニト側はクラブ間合意に達したと発表しましたがアーセナル側はこれを否定しました。最後の方で“Zenit look to have different voices coming out of the club and I’m not sure if it always the official voice. I believe what I see and what I hear directly.”という部分。ヴェンゲルが「本当に公式発表と言えるのか怪しい」とまで言っているようです。あらら。

Arsenal have not agreed a fee with Zenit St Petersburg over the purchase of Andrei Arshavin and any deal is still some distance away.

Media reports on Tuesday morning suggested the 27-year-old’s move to Emirates Stadium was nearing completion with only personal details still to be negotiated.

At his press conference ahead of the trip to Everton, Arsène Wenger denied that was the case.

“There is no news about Andrei Arshavin or about anybody else that is why I cannot give you anything,” he said. “At the moment it is all quiet.”

The Frenchman was asked outright if a price had been decided and whether a deal was far away.

“[That is] not true,” he replied. “In this job ‘far’ doesn’t mean a lot. I believe that we are not close to concluding any transfer, Arshavin or anybody else.
