Arteta’s ‘impressed’ by the Kroenkes
Mikel Arteta has revealed he has been ‘impressed’ by the shared vision the KSE group has for Arsenal.
“I’ve been really impressed,” Arteta said of the Kroenkes.
“They were here for two days, we had a lot time to sit down in a really relaxed way: talk about football, the sport in general.
“The vision they have, the commitment and level of understanding of the sport in general is fascinating. I can tell you: I have never seen ownership at that level so committed, close and engaged to bring this club where we want.”
KSE were under pressure from supporters, who perceived them as disinterested. But Arteta believes that perception has now changed.
Arteta said: “I think before, we could have a perception of what they were.
“I think it’s completely changed, I think that’s been shown with facts and acts. Their presence here as well. Something is to be here and something is to be here the way they were. I guarantee you: they are fully committed, engaged and really looking forward to taking this club to the top.”
