Bayern Munich manipulated Gnabry to leave Arsenal, claims Wenger

Arsene Wenger has stated his belief that Bayern Munich "manipulated" Serge Gnabry into leaving Arsenal in 2016.

The Frenchman was still in charge at the Emirates Stadium when the winger departed England for Germany, having made only 10 league appearances for the Gunners.

He found his way to Bayern via Werder Bremen and has since blossomed in Germany, hitting the headlines after a blistering four-goal salvo in his side's 7-2 victory against Tottenham in the Champions League last week.
