Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke issued a statement as he confirmed a number of amendments to the club's board. Kroenke is now the club's co-chair alongside his son Josh with fellow chief Tim Lewis promoted to executive vice-chair.
The Kroenke's tend to keep a low profile when it comes to discussing matters at the club. However, Arsenal's owners have tried to be more transparent with supporters since the failed European Super League plot in April 2021, which aimed to create a closed shop of so-called elite clubs.
Arsenal were one of 12 clubs involved in the plan, which imploded within 48 hours of its launch. That encouraged Gunners fans to launch yet another protest against Kroenke, which he dismissed by insisting he was "100 per cent committed to Arsenal".
