LONDON: English Premier League side Arsenal on Monday increased the price of their cheapest season ticket to just under £1,000.
The London club’s tickets are now £275 more expensive than rivals Liverpool after their first price increase in four years.
Club director Danny Fiszman defended the 4.5 percent jump, which takes the season ticket price from £885 to £925.
“We’ve held the prices for four years but there is substantial inflation in football,” Fiszman told Arsenal TV Online.
“Rather than keep holding prices back and then having a huge increase, we think it’s better to have a small, steady increase rather than a big jump.”
He added: “Our season tickets include cup and Champions League games, which other competing clubs in London charge extra for.” –
