Spurs have spent about 17 million more per year since the Abrahmovic era (2003) and 8 million more since the start of the premier league.
I don't know the differences between the wage bills (either I am blind or they don't separate these from total operating costs in their annual reports), but I am aware Arsenal historically have spent quite a bit more. I know Arsenal's has increased recently, as I imagine spurs has, due to the increased size of their squad. |
Post 1240 in this thread has the average wage bill per player of each team, Arsenal's is 50m more than Spurs
Arsenal were 5th in England, Spurs 10th
and even with Spurs spending more in actual transfer fees, its still a 25m gap between the two per season. Quite large
