Usmanov buys second largest stake in Arsenal

Russian businessman Alisher Usmanov has increased his shareholding in Arsenal
after his investment company Red and White Holdings Limited raised their stake
in the club to 21%.

俄國商人烏斯馬諾夫持股增至21%,僅次於最大股東Fiszman.

MAIN INDIVIDUALS (33.19%)

Red & White Holdings 21%
Stan Kroenke 12.19%

The purchase, which was announced on Tuesday morning to the Stock Exchange,
makes Usmanov's company the club's second-highest shareholder behind Danny
Fiszman, who has 24%.

Usmanov, who formed the company alongside fellow investor Farhad Moshiri
specifically to hold equity in the north London club, first bought into
Arsenal when he paid former vice-chairman David Dein around ￡75million for
his 14.65% holding in August.

Dein left the club in April over differences with the board over investment
possibilities - with American businessman Stan Kroenke's potential involvement
thought to be the main sticking point.

But Dein is the chairman of Red and White Holdings Ltd and looks certain to
remain a key figure as the debate over the Gunners' future continues.

The club release their financial results on Monday, with the move to the
Emirates Stadium expected to have helped them cut the gap between themselves
and the likes of Manchester United and Chelsea.

When Usmanov first emerged as an investor, he announced his intention to
continue a process of accumulating shares - something he now appears to be
making good on.

He said at the time: 'Arsenal as a business is undervalued. My aim is to
steadily increase my package because I think the value of it will grow and
will soon reach a higher level. The club has everything to achieve it.'

And while there is sure to be speculation about the Uzbekistan launching a
full-scale takeover bid, the club's current board are already on record as
being opposed to such a move.

Managing director Keith Edelman insists the club are not in need of investment
and that manager Arsene Wenger has ample funds to spend.

Meanwhile Fiszman, who is seen as the key to any takeover bid, has also given
assurances to the Arsenal Supporters' Trust that he has not intention of
selling his shares.
