Sounds like Arsenal FC may have enough funds to buy some new players after all, that's if they agree to take on a new celebrity investor!
That celeb is none other than US rapper turned record company mogul Jay-Z who wants to buy a stake in the North London giants. A keen sports fan back in the States (where he co-owns a basketball team), Hova fell in love with the Gooner's brand of free-flowing footy on a recent trip to Highbury and even met club captain Thierry Henry.
"Jay-Z loves football - he thinks the whole scene is very bling. He has also met Henry and thinks he is really cool," reports Launch. "Jay-Z is a man who gets what he wants - and he wants a portion of a Premiership club."
Maybe that'll persuade Henry to sign a new contract? Meanwhile Jay-Z is rumoured to be on the brink of coming out of retirement with a brand new album by the end of the year.
