Who is Mukesh Ambani? World's eighth-richest man interested in Arsenal takeover

The world's eighth-richest man Mukesh Ambani would target taking over Arsenal ahead of the likes of Liverpool if he ever moved into the football business.

According to The Athletic, Ambani's son Akash, 31, is, reported to be a big fan of the Gunners and the London club is the one the family would go for if they did enter the football world. The Ambanis, who live in a vast 27-storey mansion in Mumbai, have also been linked with Liverpool.

Of course, Stan Kroenke may wish to hold onto the club, particularly after investing more than £270million into Mikel Arteta's project in the last two summer transfer windows alone. But he's a businessman after all, so if the Ambani family came knocking, he probably would listen to an offer at least.
