Henry Warns Arsenal Takeover Could Take A “Very Long” Time

Former Impact coach and Arsenal great Thierry Henry has warned fans of his old club any potential takeover by Swede Daniel Ek would not go through quickly.

Spotify founder Ek, is a long time Arsenal fan and wants the club to re-discover its identity.
Henry and other club legends, Dennis Bergkamp and Patrick Vieira have hopped on board with the Swedish businessman in his bid to wrest Arsenal away from American Stan Kroenke and son Josh, who are on record recently stating they do not want to sell and that they are, “100% committed to Arsenal.”

“He [Ek] wants to re-inject the Arsenal DNA, the identity that’s gone,” Henry said.
