In recent years, the long standing criticism that Stan Kroenke did not invest sufficiently in Arsenal has begun to fade. Over the last five seasons, the ownership has overseen a period of significant financial backing, allowing the club to reshape its squad and re-establish its competitive identity. The Gunners have made several impressive signings and are now guided by one of the most highly regarded young managers in modern football.
Mikel Arteta has engineered a transformation that has lifted Arsenal from a period of mediocrity to the level of credible title challengers. Across the last three campaigns, the team has gradually rebuilt its confidence and tactical solidity, putting itself in a position to compete for the Premier League once again. This season has further underlined the progress, with performances suggesting that the club possesses all the necessary ingredients to pursue the trophy.
A New Strategic Era at Arsenal
While investment has clearly increased, the motivation behind it appears to extend beyond short-term ambition. Kroenke has reached a stage in his business career where he is reportedly focused on creating long-lasting sporting dynasties. Arsenal, already one of the most valuable clubs in world football, is viewed as a project that can deliver sustained success. With silverware likely to attract even greater global attention, the ownership recognises the potential to elevate the club’s standing further.
Arteta’s role within this evolution has grown steadily. His influence goes beyond team management and encompasses the broader vision for the club’s future. The alignment between the manager and the ownership has created a stable foundation on which long-term success can be built.

Arteta and Kroenke Share a Long-Term Vision
Keith Wyness discussed this development with Football Insider, saying, “Mikel is actually, from what I understand, certainly from speaking to my Arsenal contacts, he is actually getting involved in helping to build that sort of, you know, legacy going forward. And there’s no doubt Kroenke is after a dynasty. He wants to try and build that the right way. And they are certainly not just short-term investors. They’re looking longer term, and they want to build something going forward.”
Arsenal’s progress suggests that this shared vision is beginning to take shape.
