Gazidis: I'm honoured to be a part of Arsenal

New Chief Executive Ivan Gazidis has said that he is honoured to be a part of a club with such a great tradition and heritage.

Gazidis also promised to bring his commercial and business experience of managing major MLS clubs to the Premiership.

He said: "I have been privileged in my 14 years with MLS to have worked with and for some of the best sports executives and owners in the world, whose vision, commitment and expertise have taken the league from strength to strength and provided a solid platform for its future growth.

"I am delighted to be offered the opportunity to bring that experience to bear at Arsenal - a club rich in heritage and tradition - that is superbly positioned for success in the modern era.

"I relish the prospect of working with the key stakeholders to further propel the club forward.

"It is nearly 16 years since I left the UK but I'm very much looking forward to returning in January."
