You misunderstand. The contention is that if there are reports in the media that we are interested, fabrice seems to be suggesting that these reports are not true or made up. He also uses examples of where there have been reports that we were interested in a player who then doesn't sign as proof of some of these made up reports.
The reality of course is that we have interests in multiple players for the same position and so obviously we aren't going to sign more than one player to fill one role or position. Maehle for instance we probably were interested in as was widely reported but we ended our interest once we signed up kwp. Not signing a player is not proof that articles or journalists have invented stories of our interest.
