Usmanov initially said he wanted to increase his stake to 25%

Russian billionaire Alisher Usmanov has revealed for the first time that he has long-term ambitions to buy Arsenal.

Usmanov recently raised his stake in Arsenal to 23% but indicated that he had no plans for a takeover.

The 54-year-old has now changed his tune but added that nothing would happen in the immediate future.

"We don't have the capacity today, but this is business and life is changing," he said. "Something that you can't do today, maybe you can do tomorrow."
