Elneny Threatens To Leave Arsenal
Arsenal midfielder, Mohamed Elneny has threatened to dump the club if he fails to get more playing time under the club manager, Mikel Arteta.
Elneny helped his country, Egypt reach the final of the just concluded Africa Cup of Nations.
The midfielder who played in all the five matches in AFCON noted that he would consider leaving the Emirate if he does not make the starting 11.
Elneny in an interview with Ahmed Hossam Mido said, “I have a dream and I will not give it up.”
“I see myself able to be in the starting 11, but if I saw that the difference between me and my colleagues in Arsenal was too big, I would leave immediately, I’m not stubborn.”
He further stated that he left the club on a loan to the Turkish side, Besiktas in the 2019/20 season because he felt he was not part of then manager Unai Emery’s plans.
He added, “When [Unai] Emery was the coach, I left for Besiktas due to the feeling that the coach wouldn’t give me a chance.”
