Arsenal Supporters’ Club in Nigeria Targets 10 Thousand Members and Plans Expansion

Arsenal Supporters’ Club in Nigeria has announced plans to expand its activities across the country, targeting 10 thousand paid members in the first year after launching its digital platform. The plans were outlined in media statements issued by the club’s Directorate of Media and Public Relations on 10 November 2026, following the reappointment of its executive council.

The club is developing a membership platform, expected to launch within two weeks of the announcement, which will serve as its online gateway and membership database. The plan includes a nationwide registration campaign, the issuance of verified digital and physical membership cards, and ordinary, premium, and sponsor or corporate membership categories.

The club also intends to establish branches in Nigerian states and regions, and to open participation in its delegation to the African Fans Festival in Kenya to Arsenal supporters in the country, subject to registration and selection conditions and travel arrangements. It said participation aims to strengthen ties with African supporters’ clubs, while a campaign has begun to attract sponsors to provide financial and logistical support for the delegation.

The proposed local initiatives include monthly community programmes, such as clean-up campaigns and blood donation drives, as well as guidelines for organising match-viewing venues and a code of conduct that encourages peaceful support and rejects violence among fans of rival clubs.
