Aliko Dangote Looks Forward To Buying Arsenal...Some Day!
Africa’s richest man, Aliko Dangote, has shown interest in buying Arsenal.
With an
estimated fortune of £10.4billion, he reportedly wanted to buy Arsenal
when the former director Lady Nina Bracewell-Smith was selling her
shares in 2010.
Nevertheless Dangote remains keen to become part of the Emirates Stadium club sometime in the future.
Speaking
to Bloomberg, he said: “I still hope, one day at the right price, that I
will buy the team. I might buy it, not at a ridiculous price but a
price that the owners won’t want to resist. I know my strategy.”
Dangote, though, added that no imminent bid was in the pipeline.
“We
have $16bn-worth of investments in the next few years. Right now I want
to take my own business to a certain level. Once I finish on that
trajectory, then maybe,” he said.
