The Arsenal midfielder has moved to clarify
comments he made regarding the Football
Association's intention to persuade the
Manchester United youngster to represent
England
Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere has clarified
comments he gave to the media regarding the
Football Association's attempt to convince
Manchester United winger Adnan Janusaj to
play for England.
David Moyes revealed on Sunday that the FA
were keeping tabs on Januzaj - who is eligible
to play for Belgium, Albania, Serbia and
potentially Kosovo if they are granted Fifa
affiliation - as he has yet to settle on which
nation he wants to represent at international
level.
Asked his view on the matter, Wilshere
suggested Januzaj should not be allowed to
choose to play for England because he is "not
English", comments that were distorted in the
British media on Wednesday morning.
Wilshere stated on his Twitter account: "Just to
clarify a few things....again! Seems to be a
trend in this country, poor journalism in my
eyes! I wasn't referring to Janujaz...
"The question was should foreign players be
allowed to play for England, and in my opinion
I don't think they should! He is a great
player...
"I wish he was English! I'm sure most of you
agree with me even if some journalist are
trying to make me look bad....again!"
