Arsenal have decided against proceeding with an expansion of the Emirates Stadium, according to a report by The Athletic. The club, whose current home holds around 60,000 supporters and regularly sells out, will keep the ground at its existing size rather than pursue additional seating. The decision will fuel debate among fans about whether the club is maximising matchday revenue in its bid to compete at the top of the Premier League and in Europe.
Why now: Arsenal are one of England's biggest clubs with constant high demand for tickets, so any decision on stadium capacity directly affects fans and the club's finances.
