Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger hasn't mentioned Jose Mourinho in his new book.

Wenger has given his reasons for completely omitting any mention of one-time rival Mourinho, now in charge of Tottenham, from his new book 'My Life in Red and White'.

Tensions between Wenger and Mourinho came to a head in 2014 when they physically clashed on the touchline following a disagreement.

They also exchanged a number of barbs in press conferences, with Mourinho calling Wenger a "voyeur" and a "specialist in failure".

When asked about the lack of Mourinho, however, Wenger simply answered: "I didn't want to make a book that sorts out some differences. I wanted it to be a positive book. I had more acrimonious battles with Sir Alex than Jose Mourinho."
