It would be absolutely correct to say that the whole world is celebrating Arsenal’s title. From all corners of the globe, we are witnessing many famous and non-famous people who are Arsenal’s fans and who finally lived to see their beloved club winning the Premier League after 22 years waiting.

On Saturday, the Gunners will try again, for the first time after 20, to win the same trophy, and will face the current champions, PSG. On paper, the French team is the favorite, but that doesn’t mean that Campbell is pessimist. 🗣️ Sol Campbell on his #UCL final goal: “I was like a fairytale, I’d been through so much, so many ups and downs.

For those clauses to be activated, Gordon would need to win both La Liga and the Champions League with his new club while also playing a major role in those successes.##EDITO..
