'I told you all': Declan Rice leads Arsenal Premier League title celebrations

Declan Rice has led Arsenal’s Premier League title celebrations.

Manchester City’s draw at Bournemouth meant the Gunners could not be not caught with one game left to play, and the party began in north London and London Colney.

As hundreds of Gunners fans descended on the Emirates to celebrate, the Arsenal squad were together at the club’s training base to celebrate together.

And Rice was quick to mark the occasion on Instagram, posting an image of himself with the likes of Kai Havertz, William Saliba, Myles Lewis-Skelly and Bukayo Saka.

The midfielder, widely tipped to be crowned the top-flight’s player of the season, added the caption: “I told you all ... it’s done.”

It is a reference to a viral clip of Rice mouthing “it’s not done” following defeat to Manchester City last month.

Sky Sports cameras showed wild scenes of the Arsenal players and staff celebrating, and Arsenal’s official social media accounts posted a video of the moment Arsenal were crowned Premier League champions.

Mikel Arteta’s side will formally be presented with the trophy on Sunday after their final match of the season at Crystal Palace.

They could still make it an historic double for the club as they chase their first Champions League title in the final against Paris Saint-Germain later this month.
