Arsenal FC has recorded the two most expensive sponsorship deals in its history. The renegotiated agreement with Emirates as the main shirt sponsor starts in 2019-20, and increases the annual amount to the club by £16 million (€18.6m) to £40m (€45.1m) per season until 2023-24. In addition, adidas succeeds Puma as the club's equipment supplier, for £60m (€68.3m) per season until 2023-24.
