Mother of Arsenal starlet Naitland-Miles banned from club

Arsenal have banned Ainsley Maitland-Niles' mother from the club after she reportedly struck their chief contract negotiator.

The Daily Telegraph suggest that a woman was arrested at Arsenal's Colney training ground last month on suspicion of assaulting two people, including Arsene Wenger's top negotiator, Dick Law.

The woman has been identified as, Jule, the mother of 17-year old winger Maitland-Niles who allegedly struck out at Law during a meeting discussing the contract of her son.

Jule has been told in no uncertain terms by the club that she can no longer attend the training ground while Maitland-Nils remains a top Gunners prospect despite the incident which had no further action after the initial arrest.
