Arsene Wenger has described reports that assistant Boro Primorac will join Turkish club Konyaspor at the end of the season as “fake news”.

Knowingly and humorously touching on the recent common phrase, as well as following up Arsenal’s dismissal of the story on Wednesday, the 67-year-old added that the speculation seemed a consequence of the recent media climate. Primorac has been Wenger’s assistant since they worked together in Japan in 1994.
