More from Sky Sports News’ Kaveh Solhekol:
"That is another concern but look, if you are going to put a consortium together to buy a club like Arsenal, you would want a billionaire like Daniel Ek, who also supports the club and you would want people like Thierry henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Patrick Vieira involved." Normally, when we see these things played out in the media, they don't come to fruition. People who've got the money to buy a big Premier League club like to do things discreetly. The other tiny concern I would have is the fact that when these kinds of deals happen, they tend to come out of the blue. I wouldn't say I'd put money on it happening, but it is a possibility. "So, I wouldn't say that this is certainly going to happen. "Now, there has been no indication that Arsenal is for sale but my understanding of the situation is that if Stan Kroenke was to sell the club to anyone, it would be to a consortium that included club legends like Henry, Vieira and Bergkamp. The Athletic's David Ornstein says protests from Arsenal fans outside The Emirates 'sent a powerful image across the world' although doesn't feel it will affect the owners' views of running the club But you would discreetly make it known to people that the club is for sale. You are not going to do that because that's going to affect the price you are going to get for the club. "Of course, if you own a Premier League club, one the of the big six, and you want to sell the club, you are not going to come out in public and say I've had enough, the fans are forcing me out and the club is for sale. "Arsenal is not officially for sale but I have been told in the last few days that the owners of the six breakaway clubs have been taken aback by the backlash to their plans and in fact, one of those six owners is close to throwing the towel in and he would listen to offers for his club. "The question was, is this deal likely to happen? The most important thing is, do we have a willing seller? Does Stan Kroenke want to sell Arsenal? All the indications have been that the club is not for sale. The Athletic's David Ornstein believes it would take an 'astronomical' offer for the Kroenkes to even consider selling Arsenal
