Mainly to pay back the mortgage  of their new  Emirate stadium.It was budgeted for 200 two hundred million pounds but it ended at 640 six hundred and forty million pounds.

 Nickolas Anelka  was good striker but his brother who was his agent, wanted him to join Real Madrid. He joined Arsenal from P.S.G for 500 thousand pounds.  But was sold to Real Madrid  for 23, twenty three million pounds.
