Arsenal are now just one game away from immortality.
Mikel Arteta’s side have already ended their 22-year wait for a Premier League title, but the season could still become even more historic.
The Gunners will now face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final in Budapest, with both clubs chasing European glory. It is the biggest game the North Londoners have played in nearly two decades, and belief around the club is growing stronger by the day.
One man who is absolutely convinced Arsenal will get the job done is Ian Wright.

Ian Wright predicts Arsenal will beat PSG in the Champions League final
Arsenal’s run to the Champions League final has been nothing short of incredible.
Arteta’s side have overcome some of Europe’s best teams and have done so while dealing with injuries and enormous pressure throughout the season.
The confidence inside the squad now looks sky high following their Premier League title triumph as well. That growing belief is clearly shared by Wright.
The Arsenal legend has been one of the club’s loudest supporters throughout the campaign and has emotionally backed this team every step of the way.
Now, ahead of the final against PSG, Wright has made an incredibly bold prediction.
He said on Arsecast: “As I sit here now, we are winning the Champions League.
“90 minutes in a one-off game with nothing to worry about. We are winning the Champions League.”
Honestly, many Arsenal supporters will feel exactly the same way right now.

Arsenal’s Premier League triumph could help them beat PSG too
Winning the Premier League before the Champions League final may end up giving Arsenal a massive psychological advantage.
For weeks, there was pressure surrounding the title race and the fear of Manchester City potentially chasing them down.
That pressure is completely gone now.
Arsenal can head into the final against PSG with freedom, confidence and absolutely nothing weighing them down mentally.
That is dangerous for the rest of Europe because this Arsenal side already looked fearless even before becoming champions.
If players like Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice and Eberechi Eze produce their best football in Budapest, Arsenal genuinely have every chance of becoming champions of Europe for the first time ever.
