Ian Wright says he ‘cannot accept’ Eni Aluko’s apology

Ian Wright says he “cannot accept” Eni Aluko’s apology for suggesting the former England striker risked blocking female pundits from being given broadcasting opportunities.

Wright, who is a pundit for various outlets on the men’s and women’s game, said he had seen the apology from the ex-England forward but wanted to move on from it.

“I’m very disappointed by what Eni has said,” the Arsenal legend said. “She knows how I have helped her and supported her publicly.

“I can’t accept it [the apology] but I also want to move on from it. I don’t need any further social commentary directed at anyone.”
