Arsenal fans have taken to social media to praise former manager Arsene Wenger following his comments on a potential takeover of the north London club.

Speaking last night on BeIN Sports via Get French Football News, the Arsenal legend admitted that he would be happy to help the club following news from The Telegraph that Spotify owner Daniel Ek is plotting a bid to buy the club from KSE, with Wenger saying: “The best deals are the ones where you come out and nobody knows about it and it is done. If I can help Arsenal, I will.”
