Arsenal have denied midfielders Jack Wilshere and Mathieu Flamini were involved in a training ground altercation on Friday.
Wilshere appeared visibly irate with the Frenchman at Arsenal's Colney training base and had to be calmed down by right-back Bacary Sagna.

The photographs of the altercation were captured by the club's chief photographer, Stuart McFarlane, yet were still released through a photo agency.
Arsenal, however, insisted the pair were joking following a keep-ball session.

Flamini was involved in an on-pitch spat with Mesut Özil during the Gunners' Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich on Wednesday.
Özil reacted angrily to Flamini shoving him for not tracking back just moments before Bayern doubled their lead.
