Arsenal striker Robin Van Persie has strongly denied reports that he lashed out at Chelsea stars. He is quoted back in his native homeland that he criticised clubs and their supposed gamesmanship, with in particular Chelsea and Spanish players.
But the Dutch international was quick to refute such a claim on the Arsenal.com, he said
“I’m on international duty at the moment, but following several reports in the media I think it’s important to clarify some recent comments attributed to me.
“These reports falsely suggest that I recently made negative comments about Spanish and Chelsea players, I would like to make it perfectly clear that I haven’t done an interview with Sport 1 or any other outlet in recent weeks and I’ve certainly not been rude as the comments suggest.
“I respect my colleagues of Spain and Chelsea and look forward to playing against them for many years to come.
“I sincerely hope that all football fans worldwide don’t take these misleading reports seriously.”
