Nacho Monreal has backed Arsenal to end their eight-year wait for a trophy by winning both the Premier League and Champions League titles this season.

Monreal is part of an Arsenal side that has enjoyed a stunning start to the season, having won 10 and drawn just one of their last 11 matches.

It’s the sort of form that has led many to believe the Gunners could finally taste silverware this season – and full-back Monreal is no different.

The 27-year-old believes Arsenal have what it takes to challenge for both the Premier League and Champions League prizes.


‘I would not say just one [trophy], I would say a few,’ Monreal told Arsenal Player.



‘The Premier League is very difficult, the Champions League, these are major trophies but we are on a good run.

‘Of course that is very tough to achieve.

‘We are top of the table, it is still early doors, but we will take every game as it comes and at the end hopefully we’ll win a title.’

Arsenal have come close to winning trophies in recent years, only to fall at the final hurdle.

But Monreal says this squad is different, with the confidence flooding through the players set to help them on to success this time around.

‘The players’ confidence [is different this season]. You can tell that they are very enthusiastic, very happy, the results are going our way and logically that makes everything easier.’

‘We have a happy group and that is very important to playing football well.’
