After Arsenal announced a radical new change to their ownership structure last week a new theory has emerged as to what Stan Kroenke is planning at the club. The statement from the Gunners said: "We are pleased to announce Stan Kroenke and Josh Kroenke have become our Co-Chairs while Tim Lewis becomes our Executive Vice-Chair."
It was a change from before whereby Josh, Stan's son, was working as a non-executive director, a role he has been in since 2013. Lewis had been an advisor for Stan for over 11 years, working through the process of buying the club outright for Kroenke Sports and Entertainment in 2018.
The change has come at a prosperous time for the club on and off the field with Mikel Arteta's side topping the league table, transfers and decisions from key director and former player Edu Gaspar coming off and pressure on KSE easing. Just over 12 months ago, there had been major backlash continuing towards the owners following the Super League debacle and on-field struggles.
