Santi Cazorla : 'I rejected a move to Atletico Madrid'

10 September 2013 - 10:27

Arsenal's sensational midfielder Santi Cazorla has insisted that he was offered a switch to La Liga outfit Atletico Madrid during recently concluded summer transfer window.

The Spanish International was reportedly linked with a move to Atletico Madrid this summer, as the La Liga side looked to make up for the sale of their star striker Radamel Falcao to AS Monaco.

  • However, Cazorla has claimed that he rebuffed the transfer offer as he favoured a stay with the Gunners.



     Cazorla told Marca : "No, because there wasn't any of that.



    "As [Enrique] Cerezo (president of Atletico) said, there was an offer and I was very calm."



    Cazorla joined the Gunners from Malaga during the 2012 summer transfer window for a fee of £12m.
