Arsenal have been crowned Premier League champions after second-placed Man City could only manage a 1-1 draw with Bournemouth this morning. 

City needed a win to take the title race to the final game of the season this weekend.

This is Arsenal’s first EPL title in 22 years and their first trophy since their FA Cup triumph six seasons ago.

At 44, Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is also now the second-youngest manager after Jose Mourinho to win the EPL title.

Another match this morning saw Chelsea record a 2-1 win over Tottenham, with Spurs now needing at least a draw in their final game to avoid relegation.
