Tottenham issue Arnesen ultimatum


Tottenham have given Chelsea until 1200 BST on Friday to resolve the row surrounding the Blues' approach to sporting director Frank Arnesen.
Photographs in Thursday's papers show Arnesen on board Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich's yacht but the club say the meeting was "purely a social occasion."

"Having seen the pictures we've contacted Chelsea and set them a deadline," said a Spurs spokeswoman.

"If we don't reach agreement by noon on Friday, we'll make a formal complaint."

Spurs suspended Arnesen on 4 June after claiming Chelsea approached him without consent.

Chelsea, though, have insisted they followed Premier League rules.

CHELSEA STATEMENT:
"Chelsea is aware of photos showing Frank Arnesen with Roman Abramovich on his yacht.
"Mr Abramovich and Mr Arnesen know each other and were holidaying in the same location.
"Roman and his wife then invited Frank and his wife for lunch. It was a purely social occasion."
The two clubs had been in extensive negotiations over a compensation package when it became clear Arnesen was keen to move to Stamford Bridge.

But potential deals, including moves for Chelsea players Scott Parker (now at Newcastle), Mikael Forsell and Carlton Cole, have all fallen through.

The publication of the photographs from Abramovich's yacht, taken earlier this week in Sardinia, has angered Spurs and resulted in the ultimatum.

Abramovich is believed to have returned to England to take part in emergency talks with Tottenham and stave off the threat of a points deduction.
