Wayne Rooney backs Arsenal to challenge Manchester City for Premier League title

Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney believes Arsenal’s ‘really good’ signings could see the club beat Manchester City to the Premier League title next season.

The Gunners have spent £200m this summer on Declan Rice, Jurrien Timber and Kai Havertz. Mikel Arteta was keen to strengthen the spine of his side after the Gunners’ title challenge collapsed in the final weeks of last season.

Arsenal ended up finishing five points adrift of Manchester City, having had an eight-point lead just seven games earlier.

Rooney believes the club’s signings this summer could see them complete the ‘very difficult’ task of toppling City.

‘I think for anyone to challenge Manchester City is probably very difficult but I really like the players Arsenal have signed,’ said Rooney. ‘I think they have signed some really good players, with experience as well.

‘When you look at the players Arsenal have got and signed, they have really built a strong platform for them to try and do better than they did last season and I think they will.

‘They have got a really good coach in Mikel Arteta and I think the new signings will help them to try and not do what they did, which was fall away towards the end of last season.’

Can Arsenal Challenge Manchester City?

It will be a tough ask for Arsenal to challenge Manchester City for the Premier League title next season. City have been dominant in recent years, winning the title in each of the last two seasons, and are sure to be one of the favourites again this year.

However, Arsenal have made some impressive signings this summer, and with a good coach in Mikel Arteta, they could be in with a chance of challenging for the title. It will be interesting to see how they fare this season.
