22 Years On: Arsenal Reclaim Premier League Crown

Arsenal have been confirmed as the 2025 26 Premier League champions with one match to go, ending a 22 year drought since their last title in the 2003-04 “Invincibles” season.

The Gunners clinched the title when second placed Manchester City were held to a 1-1 draw by Bournemouth. Arsenal defeated Burnley 1-0 the previous night thanks to a Kai Havertz header and now sit four points clear with one match to go.

Mikel Arteta’s side have recorded 25 wins, 7 draws, and 5 losses from 37 matches, scoring 69 goals while conceding just 26 making them the league’s stingiest defense. They have amassed 82 points, blending tactical discipline, attacking flair, and resilience throughout the campaign.

Captain Martin Ødegaard, midfield anchors Declan Rice and Martín Zubimendo and forwards Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli were key contributors. The squad’s depth and Arteta’s high pressing system finally delivered silverware after three consecutive runner up finishes.

Arsenal will formally lift the trophy after their final fixture against Crystal Palace on Sunday.

This marks Arsenal’s 14th top flight title and signals a new era of success for the club.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
