Arsenal earn millions in transfer boost as new lucrative deal confirmed

The travel holding company are set to remain as front-of-shirt and training kit sponsor while also holding the stadium naming rights for the next seven years. Arsenal and Emirates first joined forces two decades ago with the latter now as the Premier League's longest-running front-of-shirt sponsor.

Such an extensive new contract being agreed will likely benefit Arsenal in the transfer market for years to come. A £75million deal for Bruno Guimaraes has already been agreed this summer, and such a financial boost comes while the club have also been pushing to pull off a sensational move for Vinicius Jr.

On the continuation of their partnership, chief executive Richard Garlick said: "Winning the Premier League is an incredibly proud moment in our club's history and one that belongs to everyone connected with Arsenal.

"Emirates has been an integral part of this success – standing alongside us throughout this journey and sharing in the defining moments, challenges and successes that have shaped our club over the past two decades.

"Winning the title gives us the opportunity to be more ambitious and build on where we are today. Our renewal reflects a shared belief in Arsenal's future and a shared determination to keep moving forward. The best partnerships, like the best teams, never stand still.

"Together, we'll continue to challenge and build on the strong foundations we have built together, with the confidence and ambition that our greatest achievements still lie ahead.”

It has been specifically stated that the "renewal comes at a pivotal moment in the club's history" with many initiatives, including the Emirates Cup which kicks off later this month, set to continue.
