Arsenal Football Club have officially been crowned 2025-26 Premier League Champions for the season, ending a 22-year drought since their last title triumph in 2004 under Arsène Wenger.
The Gunners sealed the title today with a hard-fought victory, finishing the season with an unassailable lead at the top of the table. This marks Arsenal’s 14th Premier League title and their first since the famous “Invincibles” era.
