Mikel Arteta confident Arsenal will be champions of Europe on Saturday in leaked video | OneFootball

Arsenal are preparing to take on Paris Saint-Germain in the final of the Champions League on Saturday, and manager Mikel Arteta is confident of their chances.

The Gunners have never won the elite European competition, and last reached the final in 2006.

Arteta is convinced Arsenal will return with the trophy this weekend, telling his players and friends on Sunday night that they will be the champions of Europe on Saturday.

Arsenal were celebrating the Premier League title on Sunday night when the Spaniard made the claim.

Someone in attendance recorded the video, and it has been leaked on social media. PSG are likely to be fuming.

The clip will serve as extra motivation as Luis Enrique and his men look to successfully defend their European title.

The French team tore Inter Milan apart in the Champions League final last year, strolling to a 5-0 victory. They will be eager to deliver another outstanding performance against the Gunners.

However, Arsenal are a different team, thanks to their solid defence, which played a key role in their league title triumph.

A first title in 22 years is huge, and topping it with the Champions League trophy on Saturday is the plan at Arsenal.

Only Jurrien Timber and Ben White are expected to miss the game after Mikel Merino returned to action against Crystal Palace on Sunday, having been out since January.

Arteta has a plethora of options to choose from, and he has to get it right as the Gunners look to prove they are the best team in Europe.
