Arsenal End 22-Year Wait: Gunners Crowned Premier League Champions
For the first time since the legendary “Invincibles” season of 2003/04, Arsenal FC are Premier League champions again.
North London erupted into celebration last night after Manchester City’s 1-1 draw with Bournemouth confirmed Arsenal as winners of the 2025/26 Premier League title. After years of near misses, heartbreak, and pressure from Pep Guardiola’s City side, Arteta’s squad have finally delivered the trophy back to the Emirates.
Arsenal entered the season carrying the burden of three consecutive runner-up finishes. Critics questioned whether Arteta’s side had the mentality to finally get over the line after previous collapses in key moments.
The 2025/26 Premier League Season
Arsenal entered the season carrying the burden of three consecutive runner-up finishes. Critics questioned whether Arteta’s side had the mentality to finally get over the line after previous collapses in key moments.
This season, big performances from stars like Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, Martin Ødegaard, and Kai Havertz helped Arsenal maintain consistency throughout the season, while Arteta’s tactical evolution transformed them into one of Europe’s most balanced teams. For Mikel Arteta, he joins an elite group of managers to win the Premier League with Arsenal, following in the footsteps of Arsène Wenger and George Graham.
The club is now preparing for an official trophy parade expected later this week, with thousands anticipated to line the streets of North London.
Could This Become a Historic Double?
Remarkably, Arsenal’s season may not be finished yet.
The Gunners still have a Champions League final ahead, giving Arteta’s squad the opportunity to complete one of the greatest seasons in the club’s history. What already feels like a dream campaign could become truly legendary.
For now, though, Arsenal supporters will simply enjoy the moment they have waited 22 years to experience again:
Arsenal are Premier League champions!
