Ykee Benda said it is a dream come true for the team to end their long wait for a Premier League title, describing the current campaign as deeply emotional for many lifelong supporters.

"It's been a long time, but this feels like the time. The almost two-decade wait is now over," he said.

"My father is a diehard Arsenal fan. He's now in his 70s and every single win means so much to him. These days he calls me after every Arsenal victory. Arsenal was my first love before music and that connection has never changed," the singer confessed.

Reflecting on Arsenal's Monday night 1-0 victory over Burnley, Ykee Benda said; "At this stage of the season, it was no longer just about beautiful football. What matters was getting the points."

Ykee Benda also rallied fans, both Arsenal and rivals to turn up at Millenium Grounds this Sunday and experience the season finale together.
