Description
The wait is over: Arsenal are Premier League Champions. Now you can read the exclusive story.
For two decades, Arsenal Football Club was weighed down by underachievement and internal friction. But under the visionary leadership of Mikel Arteta, the club has shed its bad apples, forged an unbreakable collective spirit, and turned the Emirates Stadium into a fortress once more. Now, the ultimate prize has finally returned to North London.
Taking readers deep inside the pulse-pounding 2025/26 campaign, award-winning Daily Telegraph correspondent Sam Dean explores the astonishing seven-year project that transformed a club in chaos into an unstoppable title-winning machine. With unparalleled access to the dressing room, Dean charts every defining moment of the Arteta era—from the ruthless defenestration of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and the brilliant integration of Hale End academy stars to the high-stakes £270m recruitment drive that finally pushed them over the finish line.
Gripping, authoritative, and packed with insider stories, Arsenal is the definitive story of a footballing giant waking up. It is an essential, must-have read to celebrate the Gunners' spectacular return to the apex of global football.
