Roberto Muzzi recalls rejecting Arsenal move in the 1990s

Roberto Muzzi revealed that he turned down a potential transfer to Arsenal, which upset Cagliari President Massimo Cellino. The incident occurred during a vacation when Cellino called Muzzi to bring him back for a flight to London orchestrated by Arsène Wenger. Muzzi chose to remain with Cagliari, prioritizing his family life and happiness over the opportunity to join the Premier League. The former striker later joined Udinese before retiring in 2009 and has been involved with Cagliari's infrastructure since returning in 2022 as technical director.
