‘Without David Dein there wouldn’t have been a Premier League’ Greg Dyke

David Dein was co-owner of Arsenal for 24 years, vice-chair of the Football Association and president of the G-14, receiving high admiration from sporting icons including Arsène Wenger, Sven-Göran Eriksson and Ian Wright, as well as an MBE for voluntary work in schools and prisons. In conversation with FT associate editor & columnist Stephen Bush.
