We’ve still got the aura of big Gunns

ARSENAL’S “aura” saw the north London club attract the talent which has helped them start the season in style, believes Josh Kroenke.

And club director Kroenke – son of owner Stan – insists the Gunners have set their sights on winning the title.

Arsenal were the biggest spenders in the last window, investing £152million in six players, including £72m on Nicolas Pepe (above). That was

despite the club missing out on Champions League football after finishing fifth and losing the Europa League final.

Two matches into the new season, only leaders Liverpool and Arsenal have maximum points in the Premier League and meet on Saturday.

Kroenke said: “This summer, even though we weren’t in a position of strength, there were a few people caught off guard that Arsenal Football Club still has the aura that it does.

“When Arsenal knocks on a player’s door, it’s a different knock.

“We’re excited to keep pushing that now and into the future.

“Our ambitions are the same as the fans. Our goal is to get back and to win the Premier League.”
