Arnesen: "Never Negotiated with Cocu"

INTERVIEWS During the press presentation by Frank Arnesen, Michael Verschueren also received a question about Phillip Cocu. Verschueren did not want to go into this, but Arnesen did. According to him, Cocu was never spoken.


"We are currently looking at a few options, but I can not say when they will be completed," Verschueren said. "Will it take weeks, probably not, but today we can not say anything about a name or a term."

Arnesen then spontaneously picked up. "I want to say something about Cocu, there's a lot written about him, Cocu has decided a while ago that he wants to recharge his batteries, he's been a ten-year coach, without interruption. After his resignation at Fenerbahçe, he said he was not right. to come to a new club now. "

"So there has never been any negotiations with Cocu," Arnesen says categorically. "Because we already knew that he might only be available for Anderlecht in the summer."
