Spotify’s founder and CEO Daniel Ek has expressed that he is “very serious” about purchasing Arsenal, despite current owner Kroenke ruling out the sale of the English football club.
As a kid growing up, I’ve cheered for @Arsenal as long as I can remember. If KSE would like to sell Arsenal I'd be happy to throw my hat in the ring.
— Daniel Ek (@eldsjal) April 23, 2021
Ek first took to Twitter to express his desire to purchase the club, stating that he has been a fan since childhood and has now stated to have a “very compelling offer” for the club, going on to highlight that he has secured funding for the purchase.
As it stands, Arsenal’s current ownership has maintained its position that it is not selling a stake, reiterating their commitment to the club.

On Wednesday evening, River of Love Senior Pastor Gordon-John Manché took to Facebook to clarify that the community leaves its members at liberty to choose whether they wish to take the COVID-19 vaccine or not.
This comes after MEP Cyrus Engerer posted about allegedly receiving messages from the movement’s members urging him to vote against the certification of the COVID-19 vaccine and tests and that vaccine recipients ‘take the devil’s number’.
Manché stated that the River of Love does not get involved in such issues and expressed his disappointment with Cyrus Engerer and asked if the MEP would react in the same way had it been from a different religious community.
