Was this expected at Arsenal as in Edu to leave his role and Arsenal completely or has this come as a surprise?Vinay Venkatesham left as CEO in summer and Edu was close to him. Edu's influence has been diminished since then with Tim 'no handshakes' Lewis gaining more clout behind the scenes. Edu apparently wanted the CEO role.
Plus Marinakis offering a shed load of money.
That's the main reason from what I'm hearing.
Arteta only signed a new contract a few weeks back, It would be interesting if he would have done knowing Edu was leaving his role?
