On Thursday, Kroenke's son, Josh, participated in a Fans' Forum to explain Arsenal's decision to initially join the breakaway league before being forced to back out.ĭaniel Ek took his Twitter saying: "As a kid growing up, I've cheered for Arsenal as long as I can remember. The Gunners is one of seven Premier League clubs annaounced to participate in European Super League but later on decided to withdraw from the controversial competition. This comes after legions of fans protest against Stan Kroenke's ownership outside the Emirates Stadium during Friday's match against Everton. If Ek gives them free Spotify subscriptions for good measure, they’ll be singing his name from the stands.Swedish billionaire Daniel Ek - co-founder and chief executive of music streaming service Spotify has revealed that he would be interested in buying Arsenal if owner Stan Kroenke decides to sell the club. The players certainly won’t like it, but the supporters would bloody love it. He could also create a version of Spotify’s much-maligned “tip jar.” Fans could donate 50 pence to Dani Ceballos for every game he goes without diving - or £10 if he ever scores a goal. Instead of paying Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang £350,000 a week ($486,000), Ek could give him $0.00437 per goal, and use the savings to buy some new defenders.

Unlike them, he at least seems to actually like football.Īnd while even famous artists struggle to make a living from Spotify’s paltry payout rates, the compensation model could be more appropriate for Arsenal. I’d also prefer Ek to plow more of his billions towards musicians, but as a long-suffering Arsenal fan, I’d cautiously welcome him to make an offer for the club. Musicians, however, have urged Ek to start paying artists fairly before buying a sports team. Ek’s announcement sent supporters wild. The 38-year-old is worth a cool $4.7 billion, according to Forbes, and as a lifelong Arsenal fan would presumably be willing to splash a big chunk of cash on the club.
