Arsenal exploring options to bring fans back to the Emirates via video when Premier League resumes
Arsenal are exploring methods of bringing fans inside the Emirates Stadium virtually during behind closed doors games when football returns.
The Premier League have commissioned the Football Supporters' Association to canvass opinion from fans on how they could best be involved in the return of the top flight, quizzing them on canned crowed noise as well as representing the support inside empty grounds.
A number Premier League clubs have also been in touch with Danish side AGF Aarhus after they successfully created a 'Zoom wall' of supporters.
The Danish Superliga was the second division in western Europe to resume, after Germany, following the coronavirus lockdown, with all games behind closed doors.
With Aarhus concerned about a lack of atmosphere, the communications department moved to construct the 40 metre screen to beam fans into the stadium and give the players some support.
It has now been used successfully twice since the league's resumption, with third placed Aarhus claiming only one of two home wins from the games played so far across the division.
Clubs across Europe have been in contact, including a number in the Premier League, as they look to address the lack of atmosphere in stadia and engage their fans.
