One of the regular title candidates of the Premier League is said to increase their ticket season prices the next campaign.
The move will certainly generate furiously with fans in a football climate that is becoming increasingly expensive for average match guides fans.
It only comes a week after the association of Football wrote supporters to the Premier League and encouraged bosses to freeze a vision-wide season ticket prize.
Arsenal is the club that intends to increase their seasonal card prices, according to the Daily Mirror.
That is despite the fact that they already have the most expensive price in Europe – their cheapest is £ 1,073, an increase of 10 percent compared to last season. That includes at least six cup matches, which means that each game costs £ 42.
The Gunners will announce an inflatory price increase of 3.7 percent, says De Spiegel, although clubs such as Liverpool have decided to freeze theirs.
Last season, Arsenal suggested to remove senior concessions, but after they met the trust of the Arsenal supporters, they threw away the plan.
A spokesperson for Ast said: 'The club has increased the number of concessions for children and adults in recent years and introduced a category for young adults.
'Last year Arsenal suggested removing all senior concessions. After feedback, they chose not to do that. It shows a good dialogue. If clubs don't do that, they should do that. '
Of course, football is a balancing act and clubs would claim that increasing prices enables them to invest more in players – something that fans often demand.
But it marks a relevant trend for long -term match geurs, where Crystal Palace is the only club that did not increase the prices for this campaign.
West Ham and Brentford are planning to become a member of Liverpool to keep their season ticket the same.
Earlier this season, Manchester United Fans made furious by setting ticket prices for members for £ 66 and abolishing concessions.
The prices had started at £ 40 for adults and £ 25 for children, but tickets were bumped to be charged in the highest category, A (at least £ 66), regardless of their location in Old Trafford.
The confidence of the Manchester United supporters hit the club for the provision of 'Zero Consultation' during the astonishing rise and claimed that they were asked to pay the errors of majority owners the Glazer family in an 'offensive' law.
