But their profits are down to the sales of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Kieran Gibbs, Wojciech Szczesny and Gabriel that topped £58.4m.

It does not include their transfer business in January where they splashed out £56m on striker Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

The total turnover from 2016 is down by £9.7m due to the club playing Europa League football.

Cash from property development is also up to £14.5m largely down to the sale of a site next to Holloway Road tube station.
