On Thursday, October 28, Miralem Pjanic posted an Instagram story reading: "Know when to let that sh*t go". Many believed that it was connected to Barcelona firing Ronald Koeman.
However, the Bosnian has made another post, saying that the two things were not connected.
"In a world where everyone's eyes are glued to their screens, it's very easy to misquote someone and place them out of context," the new story reads.
"Throughout my career, I have never intentionally, indirectly or directly, intended to harm anyone. I was raised to respect everyone and anyone.
"And I intend to continue doing that in all ways. I wish Ronald Koeman the best of luck in his future journey. I will continue to focus on doing my best for my team."
Pjanic had a fringe role at Barca in the 2020/21 season and left for Besiktas on loan at the start of the current season. It's said that one of the reasons why Miralem didn't play much was his tense relationship with Koeman.
