Arsenal midfielder Dani Ceballos believes that his training ground scuffle with David Luiz shows that the team has character. Reports earlier this month claimed Ceballos and Luiz had an altercation on Arsenal’s training pitch at London Colney which resulted in the Spaniard coming off with a cut on his nose. Ceballos previously described the reports as “FAKE” on Twitter, but he has now admitted that the incident did happen.
Dani Ceballos said “I’m not going to say that there wasn’t a clash or a scuffle, It was not an exemplary behaviour but it is good to see Arsenal is alive, that the team has character. We are two footballers with very similar leadership qualities and these things can happen. We didn’t let a single day go by. We spoke that same afternoon after training. Now we have to learn so it does not happen again. I don’t like the fact that that incident comes out at all, I will find out where it is coming from and if that is the case, that goes completely against what I expect from each other, the privacy and the confidentiality that we need, and there will be consequences. Training is very competitive and issues happen a lot of times. Those things get resolved immediately within the team and there is not much to say. There is no problem at all.”
