This might sound crazy, but 2026 could finally be the year Arsenal breaks the Champions League curse.
Mikel Arteta has steadily built this team step by step. Quarter-finals in 2024, semi-finals in 2025 – and now with Viktor Gyökeres leading the line, Zubimendi controlling the midfield, and one of Europe’s best defences, Arsenal look stronger than ever.
From Saliba and Gabriel at the back, to Saka, Martinelli, and new arrival Noni Madueke in attack, this squad looks complete. Add in Arteta’s growing ability to manage games on Europe’s biggest nights, and Arsenal finally have the mix of talent, mentality, and experience needed to go all the way.
So… can Arsenal actually win the Champions League this season? Or is it another year of heartbreak?
