A football coach who claimed to have played a part in Max Dowman's development at Arsenal has issued an apology to the teenager's father. The 16-year-old's father Robert lashed out at football coach Temisan Williams, after the latter gave an interview to talkSPORT.
Williams, who was introduced as Dowman's 'former coach' spoke about the teenager's rapid ascent through the Gunners academy ranks. This was not received well by the teenage sensation's father, who uploaded a furious post on social media in response.
At the time of writing, Robert's X post has received over 763,200 views, despite the fact he has just over 9,000 followers on the social media platform. After Dowman's father's vicious post, Williams sent an apology of his own on social media.
He wrote: "Following Rob Dowman’s comments today: I have spoken with Rob Dowman and apologised to him and his family. Going forward, I will not be discussing Max Dowman’s development. I wish Rob Dowman and his family nothing but continued success."
