Senior Arsenal players visited Arsenal captain Granit Xhaka at home following his furious outburst in Crystal Palace draw
The Gunners captain told fans to ‘f*** off’, cupped his hands to his ears and stripped off his shirt as he stormed straight down the tunnel during the chaotic match at the Emirates.
The north London club have been urged to strip the midfielder of the captaincy and make sure he never plays for the club again following the incident.
And amid reports the Swiss midfielder left the ground early, The Athletic report three senior team-mates paid him a visit with concerns over his well-being.
Lucas Torreira was pictured appearing close to tears as he reacted emotionally to the abuse directed at team-mate Granit Xhaka.
Xhaka, the Switzerland midfielder, was only confirmed as Arsenal’s club captain just over a month ago, and Unai Emery said he will take a decision as to whether he will remain captain once he speaks to the player and the club.
“It’s not the moment to speak about that because first I want to speak with him and the club,” Emery explained after the game.
“We need to stay calm but, really, he was wrong.”
Meanwhile, ex-Premier League striker Darren Bent believes Xhaka’s time at Arsenal is as good as over.
“Once you tell the fans to f-off, take the shirt off and go straight down the tunnel, that’s it at the club,” he said on Monday’s Sports Breakfast.
