A statement by Monchi this morning may mean that he will not be joining Arsenal as earlier speculated in the media.
The Gunners turned to the Spaniard as a replacement for the departed Sven Mislintat as they want a new sporting director.
The rumours of the 50-year-old making a switch to the Emirates Stadium next month gathered more moss when he waved goodbye to AS Roma following their eviction from the Champions League last week.
In fact, his previous partnership with Unai Emery at Sevilla where they jointly won the Europa League in three successive seasons made many fell it will be easy to get him to sign the 3-year contract on the table for him.
All hopes of bringing Monchi to London may have hit the rock going by a tweet he made on Twitter on Saturday morning.
It was revealed by some news outlets that Sevilla have made a bid to hijack one of football's best sporting director from Arsenal's sights and the tweet below may have confirmed that.
When translated to English, it means:Â "The heart never forgets the place where it left its best beats."
