Mohamed Elneny's agent has revealed that his client was close to leaving Arsenal in the January transfer window.
Elneny has just five months remaining on his current deal at the Emirates Stadium and his agent, Alan Nazmy, has claimed that head coach Mikel Arteta rejected offers that came in for the experienced midfielder last month.
“Mohamed Elneny doesn’t follow social media directly, but sometimes someone from his circle would send him news about him or criticism,” Nazmy told Mega FM 92.7, via Sport Witness.
