Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke confirmed to land £35m windfall after Man City defeat

Arsenal will return to the Champions League for the first time since 2017 next season. The Gunners' confirmation of their involvement in the tournament came on Wednesday, despite losing 4-1 to Manchester City.

Mikel Arteta's side were brushed aside with little trouble at the Etihad Stadium to see their title ambitions slip out of their hands for the first time all season. Man City are now only two points behind the north Londoners with two games in hand, with many expecting the champions to retain their title.

Despite the difficult evening in Manchester, Arsenal were granted some good news thanks to Nottingham Forest. Steve Cooper's side took a huge step towards Premier League safety with a 3-1 victory over Brighton, a result that ensured the Gunners have now qualified for next season's Champions League.
