Arsenal Stars Reportedly Face Bonus Cuts If They Fail to Make Champions League

Arsenal players will reportedly lose millions of pounds worth of bonuses and could face potential pay cuts should they fail to qualify for next season's UEFA Champions League.

The Gunners have not missed out on Europe's top-tier competition since 1997, but they currently lie outside of the Premier League's top four in fifth, five points back from fourth-placed Liverpool—but having played two games fewer.

Should they fail to break back into the top four before the end of the season and miss out on Champions League football, Arsenal's players "will lose bonuses worth millions" and a few "could be forced to accept pay cuts," according to the Daily Mail's Kieran Gill.
