Arsenal Emirates Stadium is set for a name-change for the club’s Champions League return against PSV Eindhoven.
While the stadium will almost certainly be bouncing on Wednesday night, there might be a bit of confusion regarding the name of the arena.
stadium is traditionally called the 'Emirates' for sponsorship reasons. However, that won't be the case on Champions League nights, with the ground simply being referred to as the 'Arsenal Stadium.'This is because UEFA does not recognise stadium sponsors. Indeed, the same rule applies to Manchester City’s Etihad Stadium, with the ground known in the Champions League as the 'City of Manchester Stadium.’The Spaniard said: “[We’re] proud and excited.
“Every time I watched it and we weren’t there, I felt it. I think you put pressure on yourself. This club has to be in the Champions League.“When I have the job that I have, I have the responsibility to try to bring the club to the biggest stages, to the biggest tournament and then be fighting for them.
