Wenger: I was offered complete control at Real Madrid
Posted Wednesday, May 23, 2018 by Marca.com
Arsene Wenger admitted that he was wanted by Real Madrid on several occasions but he rejected their approaches due to his commitment to Arsenal.
The Frenchman was a fan of Madrid as a youngster but the timing was never right to take over.
"When the new stadium was built I thought I had five years left at Arsenal," he said.
"After just one year the offer came from Real Madrid and although you are always tempted by Madrid, it was not a good moment for Arsenal. I was offered total control of the club."
