It’s an historic move and sees the Gunners finally competing commercially with their rivals. Arsenal’s £10m-a-year deal surpasses Chelsea’s £6m-a-year partnership with Hyundai and Manchester City’s with Nexen Tire. The London club will generate £30m from their deal with Rwanda, who are planning to become the world’s leading tourist destination.
