Wenger baffled by Almunia exit talk
Arsène Wenger has rubbished speculation suggesting Manuel Almunia is leaving the Club.
Someone claiming to be the Spaniard’s agent this week stated the goalkeeper is seeking a January move back to La Liga but as far as Wenger is aware, Almunia doesn’t even have an agent.
The 33-year-old is currently nearing a return to action after a troublesome elbow injury and any talk of a transfer is news to the manager, who fully expects the 33-year-old to remain at Arsenal.
“I heard it is his agent who talks about that but at the moment he has no agent.
“So I cannot see what kind of agent can talk on his behalf. We never talked about him leaving, never.
“That is not my concern before a big game.”
