Former Arsenal goalkeeper Jens Lehmann doubts Stan Kroenke intends to sell up.

There's claims former teammates Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Patrick Vieira have joined Swedish billionaire Daniel Ek's plans to bid for the Gunners.

But Lehmann told Sky Sports: "It would be fantastic to see my former teammates work for Arsenal again because they are all good guys. But I do not know if the Kroenke family actually wants to sell Arsenal. The Josh Kroenke I have met is very nice and interested in leading Arsenal to a brighter future.

"My experience of football, now I am on the board of Hertha Berlin, is that people first need to ask themselves the right questions and then implement a structure where all guys - Thierry, Dennis and Patrick - can work according to it.

"Can you see them working at the sideline together? I do not really understand what their tasks would be. There must be a good structure from top to bottom."
