While supporters will value the trophy itself, the club\u2019s executives have tangible reasons to be pleased: the campaign produced record revenues.<\/p>\n<p>According to The Times, Arsenal are on course to earn up to \u00a3770 million across the 2025\u201326 season, a Premier League record regardless of the outcome of the Champions League final. That total would surpass the \u00a3715 million reported for Manchester City in 2023\u201324 and represent an increase of \u00a379 million from last season.<\/p>\n<p>A large part of the haul came from domestic competition. Arsenal\u2019s Premier League campaign contributed \u00a3192 million in total, helped by an improved TV rights distribution and an additional \u00a33 million for finishing first rather than second.<\/p>\n<p>European progress also boosted the club\u2019s receipts. Reaching the Champions League final has already generated as much as \u00a3124 million en route to the showpiece on May 30, when Arsenal face Paris Saint-Germain searching for their first ever title in the competition. A further \u00a34 million is available if they win the final.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the headline figures, the club\u2019s financial year may not reflect a straightforward profit. The season\u2019s record revenue comes alongside heavy spending on transfers last summer and a substantially higher wage bill, factors that could still produce a loss for the period.<\/p>\n<p>Taken together, the 2025\u201326 campaign establishes Arsenal among the highest-revenue clubs in world football, placing them behind only Real Madrid and Barcelona in the list referenced by the report. For the club, the triumph on the pitch has translated into unprecedented commercial success and a set of financial challenges to manage in the months ahead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal end 22-year wait and record revenues: \u00a3770m season, \u00a3192m from Premier League, \u00a3124m CL run.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14011,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[192,969],"tags":[1317,1162],"class_list":["post-14012","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-arsenal","category-premier-league","tag-accounts-2025-26","tag-analytics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14012","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14012"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14012\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/14011"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14012"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14012"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.weplayfpl.com\/news-articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14012"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
