22 Years The Inside Story of Arsenal’s Title-Winning Season

They were labelled ‘bottlers’. Season after season, they skirted tantalisingly close to triumph without ever quite making good on their promise. But as Declan Rice asserted after a potentially season-defining defeat to Manchester City: ‘It’s not done.’ 

Now Arsenal are Premier League champions after twenty-two long years – and this is the exclusive story of how Mikel Arteta finally transformed the Gunners into winners. 

With unparalleled insider access and exclusive interviews with some of the club’s most influential figures, 22 Years reveals the full story of the 2025–26 season. Written by the Daily Mail’s award-winning Arsenal correspondent Isaan Khan, the book reveals how Arteta got the club over the line after more than six long years full of toil and setbacks.

Khan covered the club day-to-day over this tumultuous and historic season. He witnessed the club’s efforts both on and off the field, keeping a keen eye on the pioneering manager at the centre of it all. For the very first time, he lays bare the nuances of Arteta’s leadership, from discarding big egos early on in his reign and privately dealing with fan unrest to talks with co-chair Josh Kroenke and the hidden moments with his players behind closed doors.

Here is the definitive account of a tenure that returned Arsenal to the summit of world football. Authoritative and packed with detail from key sources, 22 Years takes readers inside the Emirates like never before. 

From nearly men to champions. It’s done.
