Mikel Arteta has finally delivered the Premier League crown to Arsenal after more than two decades of waiting. The Gunners boss addressed his squad at a title celebration, calling them the true champions of England.
Arteta’s side secured the league title this week after Manchester City’s 1-1 draw with Bournemouth. The Spanish coach was not present at the training ground for the match; instead, he watched the decisive result at home with his family.
Later that evening, Arteta joined the festivities at the Tape nightclub in Soho, where the party stretched into the early morning hours. Two 16-year-old talents, Marli Salmon and Max Dowman, were also part of the celebration.
Taking the microphone, Arteta delivered a characteristically passionate speech, praising his players for their hard work and dedication throughout the season. The triumph marks the club’s first league title in 22 years and cements Arteta’s legacy as the manager who ended the drought.
