Arsenal end 22-year wait to win Premier League title
Arsenal F.C. have been crowned Premier League champions for the first time in 22 years after Manchester City F.C. were held to a 1-1 draw by AFC Bournemouth, reports a Qazinform News Agency correspondent.
Mikel Arteta’s side secured the title following three consecutive runner-up finishes, ending Arsenal’s longest wait for the English crown since the Premier League era began.
The North London club had led the table for most of the season, although their title hopes appeared under threat after a 2-1 defeat to Manchester City in April. Arsenal responded strongly in the final stretch to seal their first league triumph since the legendary “Invincibles” campaign of 2003/04.
Midfielder Declan Rice celebrated the achievement on Instagram, posting a picture with teammates alongside the caption: “I told you all.. it’s done.”
Former Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger, who guided the club to its last title in 2004, also congratulated the team.
Earlier, Qazinform News Agency reported that the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico is expected to introduce a new generation of football stars to the global stage, highlighting 15 young players to watch at the tournament.
