As valeo has pointed out, the italian press are very convinced on the Gazidis thing, they're going further now and talking about the details of his role at Milan. They are saying he will be starting on Sept 1. Still radio silence from Arsenal.
Talk that Usmanov has had enough and is looking to sell his stake. I don't like Usmanov but he was the one thing keeping Kroenke from completing a full takeover. That might well happen now.
Also, Africa's "richest man", Aliko Dangote, has come out and said he wants to buy Arsenal, and will be "looking at it in 2020". He's made comments before, apparently been after a takeover since 2010. Don't know a lot about him, but if he did buy, I would hope he'd be a bit more involved than Kroenke, and less of a dodgy oligarch than Usmanov...
