March 6 – Arsenal, still stuck in mid-table in spite of recent promising signs, have become the fifth Premier League club so far to report pre-tax losses of more than £50 million for the covid-disrupted 2019-20 season.
The North London side posted a loss of £54 million for the year to end-May 2020, up from a loss of £32.2 million a year earlier. This was in spite of a near five-fold increase to £60 million in profits on player disposals.
