Thierry Henry Goes And Korenke Wants To Underwrite Arsenal

by | 23rd, June 2007

THIERRY Henry is leaving Arsenal. But they are not the same club that made him into a world star. Have faith Gooners:

Stan Kroenke has offered to underwrite a multimillion-pound transfer budget for Arsenal but the club’s directors are determined to go it alone.

Arsenal’s capacity to compete in the transfer market has frequently been called into question and uncertainty surrounds the position of the manager, Arsène Wenger, beyond the expiry of his contract in 12 months. With that in mind, Kroenke has suggested ploughing fresh funds into the club. “It seems that the anxiety about Stan Kroenke and his intentions has been well documented,” said a source close to the American billionaire. “But he’d like to support Arsenal.”

What next?
