Arsenal legend Dennis Bergkamp has issued a strong message to Josh Kroenke insisting Daniel Ek is “here to stay”. Bergkamp is one of three former Arsenal players part of the consortium led by Spotify founder Ek who hopes to buy the north London club.
“We can’t force anyone to sell,” Bergkamp told Dutch outlet VI.
“I understand that, in addition to that offer, Daniel has now reached out twice to Josh Kroenke and his bankers.
“Whatever Kroenke’s intentions are, it would be good if we at least have a conversation with each other. In the interest of the club. Regardless, Daniel is not a quitter and neither are we football boys.
“We are here to stay. The crazy thing is that we cannot imagine how the current players feel.
“Because we have always played for the championship ourselves. We know how the fans feel.
“We have already had a meeting with a supporter delegation. We also sense more and more enthusiasm on their side. That is very stimulating.”
