As William Saliba prepares to launch his 2026 World Cup with the French team against Senegal (next Tuesday), the French defender gave an interview to The Team. During the exchange, the player playing in the Premier League explained that the coronation with the Gunners, 22 years after the last one won, was deserved. A form of comfort after so many years of effort. “It was a relief for everyone. I’ve been playing at the club for four years, the first three seasons were positive too, except that we didn’t manage to win this title.”indicated the axial initially.
Before detailing the path taken to achieve this result. “When you finish in second place three years in a row (since the 2022-2023 season), you tell yourself that you absolutely have to win, it can’t continue. This season, we had finally doubled almost all the positions and that is essential in a championship as demanding as the Premier League where you know that you are going to have two or three guys injured at least every month. But, once again, Manchester City didn’t give up, it was like a showdown. We believed in it from the start and we weren’t going to give up, this title was ours”. Indescribable feelings for the finalist of the C1 2025-2026.
