Arsenal could reportedly be the subject of a takeover bid from the man who attempted to orchestrate a purchase of Liverpool earlier in the year.
Mohammed Al Hashimi helped convince Sheik Muhammed Al Maktoum to launch a £450million bid for the Anfield club, before Liverpool accepted a rival approach from new owners Tom Hicks and George Gillett.
Now Al Hashimi admits Arsenal could be an attractive proposition as he looks to become a major player in the Premier League.
"I know the owners are very reluctant to sell but I see Arsenal as a very profitable club," Al Hashimi told The Sun.
"Liverpool was an opportunity which does not come along every day but we have to move on."
Any bid will require the financial backing of the Dubai government, via their investment arm Dubai International Capital.
Al Hashimi could also face competition from another American investor, Stan Kroenke, who has already taken a 12.19 per cent stake in The Gunners.
