Fabregas strenuously denies Wenger criticism

Fabregas supposedly questioned Wenger’s desire to win, insinuating that the club needed to start winning trophies and saying that the Frenchman would have been sacked in Spain.

But Fabregas said: “Incredible that people try and twist everything to make headlines. Arsene Wenger has had a huge impact on me and my career. Great man.”

And Wenger added: “This was an article organised by the club with a check viewing of the article. Not only did the author not respect the agreement, but also he did twist completely the article and we are really upset about it.”
