Are Arsenal in a good position to add to the squad this summer then?
KM: Yes. They have got no cost control concerns whatsoever, would be my observation.
The wages are well under control. They have used Stan Kroenke as their lender. Whether that is going to go ahead, we will have to wait for the ruling on the new associated party transactions rules.

But even if that goes in favour of the Premier League, I don’t see Arsenal have any problems at all.
They are in a very strong financial position to spend what they want. They spent £256m last season and £251m the previous season. They have certainly got the capacity to invest heavily in the market - should they wish to do so. They have the capacity.
But it, as we have seen with other clubs, is about spending it well rather than spending it big that ultimately matters. Spending it big and well is the absolute sweet spot.
