The manager of Arsenal, Mikel Arteta, has not lost hope in his team's chances of winning the Premier League title. Despite Manchester City's recent victory over Tottenham, he remains optimistic and believes that his team can still come out on top. However, he also spoke about the possibility of a future return to Spain.
The Gunners have been waiting for 20 years to win the title and their hopes were dealt a blow when City won 2-0 on Tuesday, putting them two points ahead at the top with only one game left to play. City will be playing against a struggling West Ham team on the final day, who have conceded 43 goals away from home this season, the most in the league.
For Arsenal to win the title, they need to beat Everton and hope that City slip up against West Ham. Even a draw for City would not be enough to secure the title for them, as Arsenal has a better goal difference. Despite the disappointment of City's victory over Tottenham, Arteta is still confident in his team's abilities and is focused on their own game against Everton.
Speaking at an event where he was awarded The Royal Order of Isabella the Catholic, Arteta was asked if this could be a good sign for Arsenal's chances. He replied, "Maybe it's the signal that we needed, especially after what happened last night. But we have a beautiful day ahead of us on Sunday and hopefully, the magic can happen."
Arteta also mentioned that it would be the first time the Premier League trophy would be waiting at the Emirates Stadium with red ribbons on it, if they win and City do not. He expressed his excitement about the possibility of fighting for the title until the last day and believes that Arsenal has what it takes to be champions.
The Spanish media also asked Arteta about his future plans and the possibility of managing in Spain. He revealed that he has always thought about returning to his home country someday and that it draws him a lot because of the way of living and the culture. However, he is currently happy at Arsenal and enjoys his job, but he believes that someday he will return to Spain.
Arteta's contract with Arsenal is until 2025 and he has been linked with the Barcelona job in the past. However, he is content with his current role and is not looking to leave anytime soon. He said, "I am happy here, happy with how they treat me, and I really enjoy my job. But someday I suppose it will come, I'm not going to be away for my whole life."
