Rafael van der Vaart admits that he would have joined Arsenal if they would have made an approach for him.
The Dutch midfielder has become a fan favourite at Tottenham during his short time at the Lane, but his comments won’t go down too well with our following.
“I would have moved to Bayern Munich, but they weren’t interested,” he told the News of the World.
“Arsenal? Yes of course, that would have been fantastic.
“When Madrid sold Arjen Robben (to Bayern) and Wesley Sneijder (to Inter Milan) they asked me whether I would like to stay – I would even get my No. 23 shirt back.
“What I went through is part of football – but it wasn’t nice. Football is best when you’re 10 years old.”
