Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger says selling Nicolas Anelka to Real Madrid was his biggest football regret.
前阿森纳主帅温格表示:他足球生涯最大遗憾就是将阿内尔卡卖给皇马。
Anelka established himself as one of Europe's most-promising young strikers after arriving from Paris Saint-Germain as a 17-year-old in February 1997. The Frenchman won the Premier League - FA Cup double during his first full season and was crowned PFA Young Player of the Year for his 17-goal.
1997年2月,阿内尔卡从巴黎圣日耳曼转会至阿森纳,年仅17岁他在随后的日子逐渐成为欧洲足坛最具潜质的中锋之一。他在阿森纳的第一个完整赛季就赢得英超-足总杯双冠王,并以17个进球荣获PFA年度最佳新秀
most-promising:最有前途的,最有希望的
However, Anelka endured a tricky relationship with the Arsenal fanbase and said he "can't stand the English press" in May 1999.
然而好景不长,阿内尔卡与枪迷关系微妙。他还在1999年5月说自己受不了英国的记者媒体。

Three months later, he was unveiled as a Real Madrid player after the Spanish giants agreed a fee in excess of £22million with the Gunners. Speaking at a charity event alongside former Arsenal co-owner and vice-chairman David Dein, Wenger said: "My biggest regret and shame is that Anelka left. He could have been special, instead he played for 13 clubs."
三个月后,皇马同意向阿森纳支付超过2200万英镑的转会费,阿内尔卡正式加盟白衣军团。温格与前阿森纳共有者兼副主席大卫·戴恩出席一场慈善活动时曾表示:“我最遗憾的就是阿内尔卡的离开。他本可以出类拔萃,而不是在13支球队辗转流离。”
