Arsenal, undoubtedly one of the greatest English clubs in Europe, was established in October 1886. After its formation, the London based club has become one of the most recognized football organizations in the world and is considered among the top six clubs in the Premier League. Thus, the management has decided to increase the Arsenal players salaries for the 2024-21 season.
The Gunners under Arsene Wenger were given the name of “The Invincibles” in their 2003-04 Premier league Campaign after winning the League unbeaten. They are the only team to achieve this feat to date.
Under new manager and former Arsenal captain Mikel Arteta, the Gunners have changed their playing style, though they finished 8th in Premier League but managed to claim their record 14th FA Cup.
The Gunners’ elimination from the Champions League over the past four seasons has to slip them a few rankings below the top-richest football clubs. However, with the financial backup, they are still a powerful force to sign the most prominent names. Arsenal’s total value is around 993 million USD.
The club always tried to bring in the big names but wasn’t able to make any reasonable offers, thus only managed to bring in Defensive midfielder Thomas Lartey, former Chelsea winger William da Silva, goalkeeper Rúnar Alex Rúnarsson from Dijon and centre back Pablo Mari. They had to let go of Emiliano Martínez, Lucas Torreira, Matteo Guendouzi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan.
