Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger refuses to comment on Jose Mourinho book claims

  

Arsene Wenger says he is not interested in reading a new book, which claims Jose Mourinho once said he wanted to "break his face". 

Wenger and Mourinho were involved in several very public disagreements during the Portuguese's two spells in charge of Chelsea, which culminated in the pair clashing on the touchline at Stamford Bridge last season. 

Mourinho, now in charge at Manchester United, is the subject of a new biography, Jose Mourinho, Up close and personal, which details alleged conversations with football journalist Rob Beasley - including a mention of an angry exchange surrounding Wenger which reportedly ended with
 Mourinho saying: "I will find him one day outside a football pitch and I will break his face."

Wenger said: "Look, I haven't read the book and I certainly will not read it so I cannot comment on that. 

"I talk about football and that's all I do. I'm not in the destructive mode, never. I am more constructive. 

"I cannot comment on that because I am focused on tomorrow's game and on the way we play football."
