The club's co-chair, Josh Kroenke has said there have been 'internal discussions' about renovations to the stadium.

Speaking to ESPN, Kroenke said: 'It would be premature to talk about any plans in depth, but the internal conversations are starting to occur about [the stadium]. 

'It is not an easy renovation, but we see the possibilities of what's there. 

'Our goal was always to compete for the Premier League title because if you look around the world, if you are competing for the title year-in, year-out, you are competing for everything else.

'What can our fans expect? Everything they've gotten in the last few years. We're going to keep adding to the group.

'I know Mikel's energy is through the roof in the best of ways. 

'In our women's team as well, you see how women's sport is taking off around the world. We are really excited about that part of the business.'

The stadium opened in 2006 around the height of manager Arsene Wenger's reign, with the club moving a short distance from their former ground, Highbury.
