According to the FT:

Usmanov makes $1.3bn bid to take control of Arsenal

EPL club minority investor made offer for Stan Kroenke’s controlling stake last month

 

[Thuck ma Baws]

Looks like his mate might not be coming after all.

Looks like his mate might not be coming after all.

Alternatively, if Kroenke - as seems likely - turns down the offer, then that might be the end of Usmanov at Arsenal and he'll make his exit, selling his shareholding.

Can always be rejected.......

It'll be interesting to see what happens here.

If he pulls it off, that finally puts the Usmanov rumours to bed.

If he doesn't, it all rumbles on.

Sounds like the last throw of the dice before his exit.

Welcome Ali.

Javi Martinez please.

Kronke needs Arsenal more than he needs £1.3b. Mad as that sounds.

Hopefully.

I had such high hopes when he came in but it looks like he's going to be the man that sold Stones, Barkley and Lukaku within a year. Sad to see.

The approach, made last month, valued the club at $2bn. Mr Kroenke has yet to formally respond. He is understood not to have dismissed the idea out of hand at first. However, he has since informally indicated he is not interested in selling to Mr Usmanov or anyone else. “Two weeks ago, I thought something could realistically happen. Now I am not so sure,” a person close to the situation said.

But cleared our debts, put us close to a dockside stadium & brought in a competent manager/Director of Football.

Shame he's done naff all except sell a player that didn't want to play for Everton.

If he's not successful....

....could be very interesting times ahead

That's a fair point, especially if the rumours of him using it as security for real estate developments in the USA are true.
