Opened in 2006, Arsenal’s new stadium from the very start had one sponsor. Commercial name of Emirates Stadium was always seen as one of the most valuable ever. For a 15-year deal Emirates had to pay £42 million (or 42% of the 100 million deal that included shirt sponsorship).

Now both sides agreed conditions to extend the deal for £150 million. At this point no details as to how the funds are divided were disclosed.

What is clear, though, is that Emirates will stay on Arsenal’s jerseys for 5 more years (until 2019), while their logos around Ashburton Grove are to remain until 2028, 7 years beyond the previous deal.
