The Arsenal family has turned down an offer from a Swedish billionaire to buy it.
The billionaire Daniel Eck, founder of the online music platform Spotify, said, “This week, an offer was made to Josh Kronke and their bankers. The show included a fan stake in the club’s ownership and representation on the board of directors. They replied that they did not need the money. ”
