Next year will mark 20 years since the Gunners moved from Highbury to the Emirates.

The discussions also explored changing the seating plan to add thousands of seats as Arsenal look to keep pace with England’s largest stadiums.

With a current capacity of 60,704, the Emirates is the fifth-largest football ground in the country behind Manchester United’s Old Trafford (74,879), Tottenham (62,850), West Ham (62,500) and Liverpool (61,276).
