Arsenal Aim for First Sleeve Sponsor in Their History To Help Compete With Premier League Rivals

Arsenal are reportedly searching for a sleeve sponsor to help close down the commercial gap between themselves and the Manchester clubs.

The Gunners are currently sixth in the Premier League table, 27 points behind league leaders Manchester City and 11 behind the Citizens' neighbours Manchester United. But apparently the league table isn't the only place Arsenal are trailing to these clubs.

It has been calculated that Manchester City and Manchester United are both earning over £100m more than Arsenal in their commercial revenue.

According to the Telegraph, Arsenal will try to obtain a sleeve sponsor, their first ever, from next year to help close the financial gap.
