As long as Arsenal have top players like Declan Rice at the core of their team’s spine, Mikel Arteta’s side have every chance of remaining successful for years to come.
Rice is proud of Arsenal despite PSG’s triumph in the Champions League final as they have had an excellent season by winning the Premier League title in particular.
While the midfielder would have loved to win the Champions League and the Carabao Cup finals, he will be rejoicing at helping the North Londoners end their 22-year-long wait for a league title.
During Arsenal’s trophy parade, Rice said via the club’s official YouTube channel: “Next year, we are coming back for more. Lock in or get locked out.”
Gabriel Magalhaes urged Arsenal fans to enjoy the parade and they certainly did, especially after the Englishman’s claim by raving about the 27-year-old on X.
