Inter Milan boss, Luciano Spalletti, has criticised Arsenal’s brief pursuit of Ivan Perisic and says the Croatian winger had been “conned” by the Gunners.
Perisic handed in a transfer request, when he was made aware of Arsenal’s interest, missing the defeat against Torino and ordered to train by himself.
The Gunners, however, were only prepared to do a loan deal without a compulsory option to buy.
And Spalletti feels Arsenal’s interest was never entirely serious but it still unsettled the 29-year-old winger.
“There was this story on the market, but he is a professional, understands his role and yesterday it was already a very different mood.
“These things happen in the transfer window, the player received an impressive proposal and was tempted.
“However, he then realised it was not a true offer, that he’d been conned, and took a step back.
“Now he’ll resume training and as soon as his mind is back fully on Inter, we’ll let him play,” Spalletti told RAI Sport.
