A former Arsenal star, who is now a Billionaire, has hinted that he could buy the Gunners one day.
Former French midfielder Mathieu Flamini co-founded GF Biochemicals in 2008 alongside business partner Pasquale Granata.
Three years ago, the former Arsenal and AC Milan midfielder was estimated to be worth by £10 billion by Forbes, which is reportedly the same amount as current Arsenal ownerr Stan Kroenke.
When asked if he would consider buying Arsenal, Flamini told the Athletic, "Football is the No.1 sport, it is driving so much attention, the hot issues of this world should also be on the agenda of the governing bodies," he told The Athletic(opens in new tab).
"It's a world that I belong to. If there is the right opportunity at the right time and the right discussion, if I meet people who are the same vision and mindset and desire to use football for a purpose, I would love to.
"Obviously those clubs [Marseille, Arsenal and AC Milan] have a special place in my heart. I never forget where I come from. In life, you never know but it's all about the right opportunity. I'm a real believer in the right time, right place, right people.
"We'll see what the future is made of. I'm a believer. If you want something very much, the universe usually brings it to you. Let's see what the universe will bring."
