Dangote Finally Reveals When He Will Buy Arsenal (See Details)

Aliko Dangote, Africa's richest man, has hinted

at possible takeover of Premier League giants

Arsenal, with the Nigerian business mogul

declaring the takeover could happen in 2020 or

2021.

Dangote, a die-hard Arsenal fan, has been

previously linked with the purchase of the club

from Stan Kroenke — a deal that could gulp

over $4 billion from his pocket.

But speaking with David Rubenste in show in

America, the 62-year-old business mogul gave

Nigerian Arsenal fans a sigh of relief after re-

establishing interest in taking over the

purchase of the North London side.

"I'm not buying Arsenal right now, I'm buying

Arsenal when I finish all these projects, because

I'm trying to take the company to the next

level," Dangote said.

"We will go after Arsenal from 2020, even if

somebody buys, we will still go after it."

Dangote also disclosed he is into multi-billion

projects that may not allow him to make bid for

the purchase of the Premier League giants.

"It is a team that yes I would like to buy

someday. But what I keep saying is we have

$20billion worth of projects and that's what I

really want to concentrate on.

"I'm trying to finish building the company and

then after we finish, maybe sometime in 2021

we can," the 62-year-old African business giant

said.
