Bukayo Saka expressed confidence that Arsenal can end their 21-year wait for a Premier League title after their impressive 2-0 victory against Paris St Germain in the Champions League. The young winger noted that the win over the Ligue 1 champions highlights their potential as serious title contenders this season. Saka's comments come after Arsenal finished as runners-up in the league last season, falling short to Manchester City in a race that went down to the final day.
Having secured their current position as third in the Premier League standings, Arsenal has shown promising form. With goals from Saka and Kai Havertz in the match against PSG, the team has reaffirmed its capabilities in both domestic and European competitions. Saka acknowledged that while he doesn’t want to impose too much pressure on the squad, he genuinely believes that this season could be their year to clinch the title.
Reflecting on past disappointments, Saka revealed that finishing as runners-up in previous seasons has fueled his determination for success. He emphasized his strong belief in himself and his teammates, stating, “It’s just that spirit in me that I want to win this season.” He reiterated the importance of confidence and a winning mentality within the squad, particularly when facing formidable opponents like PSG.
Arsenal’s next challenge comes in the form of a league match against Southampton, who currently sit 19th in the standings. With their sights set on continuing their momentum, Saka urged his teammates to make a strong statement at home against lower-ranked teams, further solidifying their position as contenders for the Premier League title.
