Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny has apologised to the club and the supporters for his father's recent criticism of manager Arsene Wenger.
Maciej Szczesny was quoted as saying that the French boss was to blame for the 22-year-old's recent dip in form.
Despite these comments, Szczesny has insisted that he has complete respect for the North London outfit and intends to remain at the Emirates Stadium.
"I would like to apologise for the comments made by my father which have been used by both Polish and English media," Szczesny said in a statement via the club's official website.
"I'd like to make it clear that those were the views and opinions of my father and not mine, and although I respect his views I cannot accept them as I find them disrespectful to the club I truly love.
"I've always felt that I received great support from the manager and the fans and I am fully focused on getting back to my best. I am proud to be a part of Arsenal and I see my future at this great club."
Szczesny is currently with the Polish national team for their upcoming World Cup qualifiers.
