The Russian shareholder of Arsenal is called the richest man of Great Britain

The Sunday Times called the second largest shareholder of Arsenal Alisher Usmanov to the richest man of Great Britain.

Over the past eight years, the palm of the championship in this rating has been held by the shareholder of Kuins Park Rangers Lakshmi Mittal, but now, with a fortune of 10 billion pounds, he rolled back to fourth place.

The new leader of the rating was Usmanov, who has been among the shareholders of Arsenal since 2007. The Russian businessman, who now owns a share of 30%, regularly criticizes the current owner of the Stan Croenke club and his chosen development course.

Usmanov’s condition is estimated at 13.3 billion pounds. His business applies to many industries - from metallurgical to information technology.

Immediately behind Mittal - in fifth place in the ranking of the richest people in Britain - the owner of Chelsea Roman Abramovich, who has 9.3 billion pounds, is located. Over the year, the owner of the "aristocrats" became "poorer" by 200 million pounds, and Usmanov in 12 months increased his condition by 1 billion, pays attention to Fapl.ru.
