Arsenal<\/a> manager Arsene Wenger<\/a> has revealed he will not report Barcelona<\/a> midfielder Xavi<\/a> to Fifa for comments he made about Cesc Fabregas<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Wenger was irritated when he heard that Xavi had said his Spanish team-mate was “suffering” because he had been unable to join him at his boyhood club, and said the comments were disrespectful.<\/p>\n

However, the French boss \u2013 who has vowed to keep Fabregas at Arsenal \u2013 has admitted he will not report Xavi or Barcelona to Fifa for the comments, which were posted on the Catalan club’s official website.<\/p>\n

“I don’t think it’s a sentence big enough to report a club to Fifa,” Wenger told reporters.<\/p>\n

“The impression I had was that it wasn’t respectful to our club or to Cesc. I don’t make more than that.<\/p>\n

“It has to stop, of course. If there is a transfer negotiation between two clubs, I don’t think it is healthy if players come out and talk who are not concerned by it.<\/p>\n

“Unfortunately, in this case, it has happened a few times. It will not contribute to sort any problem out.<\/p>\n

“Xavi has no direct part to play in that story and I don’t see why he should, unless he has an official job to do for Barcelona. I don’t see why he can go on the official Barcelona website and make this kind of statement.”<\/p>\n
