Huddersfield boss Wagner reveals Hareide apology over Zanka claim

Huddersfield boss David Wagner has revealed he's received an apology from Denmark coach Age Hareide for his comments about Mathias Jorgensen.

During the international break, Hareide said Jorgensen could play for a bigger Premier League.

Wagner said: "Honestly, I was very disappointed and maybe angry as well when I read these comments.

"We all together know it wasn't his place to speak about this. But he has spoken with (Huddersfield sporting director) Olaf (Rebbe) and he called me as well and apologised.

"He didn't want to say it how he said it at this moment and he knows this is not his business, as it is not my business to speak and judge how big Denmark is compared to other football nations."
