Troy Deeney revealed that he was approached by Arsenal in the summer of 2020 about joining the Gunners, but baulked at their request to apologise for antagonistic comments he had made about the club previously. Deeney famously said Arsenal’s players lacked ‘cojones’ when they were beaten 2-1 at Vicarage Road in the 2017-18 season, a comment which began a rather unlikely feud between the striker and the Gunners’ fanbase. He then received a proposal regarding a potential move to the Emirates but it would have involved issuing a formal apology for his previous remarks – something he was not prepared to do. Deeney also claims he was approached by then Tottenham boss Jose Mourinho that same summer about a move to Spurs to act as cover for Harry Kane, though the club ultimately decided to sign Carlos Vinicius on loan instead. He explained that Mourinho wanted him to come in and be himself, and that if Kane was doing well he would be his biggest cheerleader, but if not he would step in and push him. Deeney said he was happy to play every Thursday in the Europa League and that Mourinho said if he couldn’t get Vinicius over the line, he was next.
