Arsenal Manager Arteta Expresses Confidence Ending Trophy Drought This Season

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has expressed strong belief within his squad that the team can end their five-season trophy drought this campaign. Despite finishing second in the Premier League for three consecutive seasons and reaching the Champions League semi-finals last term, Arsenal have yet to capture a major title since Arteta's FA Cup win in 2019/20. The club has invested nearly £200 million on new signings, including striker Viktor Gyokeres, midfielders Martin Zubimendi and Christian Norgaard, as well as goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, aiming to strengthen squad depth for sustained success. Arteta emphasized the importance of maintaining high internal standards and daily commitment to reach their goals, while also calling on fans to create an 'invincible' atmosphere at home that motivates the players. The team’s season officially starts with a challenging away match against Manchester United after a series of pre-season friendlies. Overall, Arteta remains confident the combination of fresh talent, fan support, and a focused mindset will help Arsenal overcome past near misses and secure silverware.
