Arsenal to consider a full market listing

The Premier League club which is currently listed on the troubled OFFEX market considers undertaking a strategic review which could prompt a listing to coincide with the opening of its 60,000-seat Emirates Stadium. The options open to the club include reverting to a matched bargaining system, listing on rival market AIM or to obtain a main FTSE listing. The club is currently trade at around £2,700 and valued at £157m, well below the £732m market capitalization of Manchester United. However, the new stadium capacity will bring an additional match day revenue, what will narrow the income gap between the two clubs.
