Every Premier League Club's Most Surprising Celebrity Fan

20. Arsenal - Fidel Castro

Starting this list off we have Fidel Castro, a man who in many ways can be seen as analogous to Arsenal legend Arsene Wenger.

Think about it: Both men enjoyed long reigns in charge, both survived numerous attempts from their supporters to topple them from power, and both left a trail of murderous destruction in their wake.

Okay, maybe not that last one, but you get my point.

It turns out that Castro was actually a big fan of the Gunners prior to his death in 2016, having started supporting the club during the reign of Bertie Mee in the early '70s. The Cuban despot even reportedly was annoyed that he was unable to attend the club's victory in the 1994 European Cup Winners' Cup Final due to concerns about his safety.
