‘The First Thing I Will Do When I Buy Arsenal Is To Fire Wenger’ – Aliko Dangote

Aliko Dangote who has in the past hinted that he has plans to buy Arsenal has come out to say he will sack Arsenal’s current coach, Arsene Wenger, when he buys the English club.

​

The richest man in Africa said this in an interview with Bloomberg; Here’s excerpts below;

FL- You’ve mentioned wanting to buy Arsenal Football Club before. Is that still on your wish list?

Dangote: Yes, but I don’t want to go after Arsenal until I deliver the refinery. Once I deliver, I will go after Arsenal.

FL – There are no other clubs you’d want to buy?

Dangote: I don’t change clubs. Even when Arsenal isn’t doing well I still stick by them. It’s a great team, well-run. It could be run better, so I will be there. I will wait. Even if things change I will take it and make the difference going forward.

FL –  Do you think Stan Kroenke and Alisher Usmanov would sell their stakes?

Dangote: Well, you know anything is possible in this world. If they get the right offer, I’m sure they would walk away. We’ll be in a position to give them the right offer. They will not hold ­Arsenal forever. Someone will give them an offer that will make them seriously consider walking away. And when we finish the refinery, I think we will be in a position to do that.
