Overview

  • UK reports say Arsenal are assessing an increase from about 60,700 to beyond 70,000, with some coverage floating scenarios up to 80,000.
  • Proposals focus on internal reconfiguration by altering stand gradients and seating layouts while keeping the outer bowl largely unchanged.
  • Indicative costs are described as several hundred million pounds, with figures around £500 million cited across multiple outlets.
  • A temporary relocation is under evaluation if large-scale works proceed, with Wembley viewed as the most practical option.
