Andrea Dossena has clarified that his arrest in Harrods was only due to an 'oversight', whilst promising legal action against those who suggested otherwise.

The former Napoli defender was reported to have been arrested yesterday, under suspicion of shoplifting at Harrods.

While his representative in England Gary Sloane already denied the charges, the player himself issued a statement through the Twitter account of his agent Federico Pastorello saying there was no truth to to the story at all.

“In regard to the news released today on some websites, I would like to make very clear that the story reported is unfounded,” reads the statement.

“I was in Harrods with my wife and my son for some shopping and I forgot to pay for a honey jar and some sliced meats ​​we had previously ordered.

“While exiting the shop unaware of my oversight, I was stopped by security guards who then called the police as a standard routine procedure.

“As I wasn’t carrying with me any identity documents at the time, I was asked to go to the nearest police station in order to be identified, after which I left and went back home.

“Hence, I have now instructed my lawyers to protect my image with all necessary legal actions against those who reported this inaccurate and tendentious news.”
