That £3m? Arsenal would have had to pay dividend to Usmanov

The AGM furore over that £3m payment?

Simple explanation.

If the club had paid a dividend to  Kroenke, they would have had to pay a dividend to Usmanov.

And  Usmanov doesn’t want to take money out, he wants to put it in.

Actions have consequences : David Dein was kicked out.

So he sold his shares to a guy he’d met twice.

That’s the reality. That’s what happened.

And that’s why Kroenke was paid £3m for his “advice”.

PS. David Dein managed Wenger and got top players signed.
