Former Arsenal vice-chairman David Dein admits the club won't stock his new book.

Dein was one of the main reasons for their successful era under Arsene Wenger and has just published his life story.

Dein confirmed that the popular book was banned from the Emirates store.

He revealed: “I'm sad to say it's not in the Arsenal shop and that disappoints me terribly. It's very delicate to answer why.

"The publishers tried to put it in and I heard that the media department wanted to protect the owners, which was unfortunate."

Dean was vice-chairman of Arsenal between 1983 and 2007.
