Arsenal Hold Internal Talks About Redeveloping Emirates Stadium
Arsenal aims to boost matchday revenue by tens of millions and reduce a 100,000+ season ticket waiting list by expanding Emirates Stadium beyond 70,000 seats.
- On October 7, 2025 Arsenal Football Club plan to expand Emirates Stadium beyond 70,000 seats, possibly up to 80,000 by 2028, while temporarily relocating home matches to Wembley Stadium.
- Inspired by Real Madrid's Bernabéu redevelopment, Arsenal seek higher matchday revenue after recording �131.7m in 2023-24 and face a season-ticket waiting list in excess of 100,000.
- Constrained by a 17-acre site, Arsenal plan internal redevelopment of Emirates Stadium, altering stand gradients and seating while KSE, Populous, and Otto Maly lead talks.
- Costs and timing suggest the �400-500m project led by KSE and Populous could begin before the 2027/28 season, requiring a 12-18 month temporary relocation.
- Financially, the project could add tens of millions annually, restoring Emirates Stadium as London's largest club ground ahead of Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and London Stadium, while underlining the Kroenke family's long-term commitment with new board appointees Kelly Blaha, Dave Steiner, Otto Maly and Ben Winston.
