Patrick Vieira Believes Daniel Ek ‘Will Bring Happiness’ Back To Arsenal

Patrick Vieira fully believes in Daniel Ek’s vision to take over Arsenal.

The Frenchman along with Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp has fully backed the Swedish billionaire in his attempt to buy the club.

“After the time that I spent with Daniel, I personally believe it’s time for a change of ownership and I believe he is the right person to bring happiness back to this football club,” Vieira told the Daily Mail.

“We haven’t talked about ourselves.

“What is happening to this club at the moment is bigger than Dennis, Thierry or myself. We are concerned about how can we help Daniel because we strongly believe he can take it to a different level.

“We didn’t talk about what we will do if Daniel gets the club. We didn’t get into that conversation yet because that is not the priority. The priority is to give the club back its DNA and what it deserves.

“What is really important is to understand the football club, the fans, the country where you are. We have this kind of credibility because we know what we are talking about because of the number of years we spend in England and at Arsenal. We have experience that we can bring to the football club.

“When you look at Dennis, Thierry and myself, we spent a lot of years at this club.

“Maybe it was the place where we played our best football. England was a fantastic place for us to live and we enjoyed our lives at the club and outside as well. The country and the club mean a lot to us.

“Seeing Arsenal not being one of the teams that can challenge for the Premier League or not being one of the teams guaranteed to play Champions League football is frustrating, because that is not what we are used to with Arsenal Football Club. The club deserves much better than that.”
