Aymeric Laporte jokes he can 'smell' the Premier League trophy as he posts a meme of wrestling legend The Rock after Arsenal's defeat against Brighton... before Man City defender insists 'we still have to work for it' despite being one win from the title

Aymeric Laporte joked he can 'smell' another Premier League win after Man City moved within one victory of the title.

Pep Guardiola's side went four points clear by beating Everton 3-0 on Sunday, with the manager reminding the crowd they just needed two more wins to secure the title.

The equation became even simpler later on in the afternoon, as Brighton's victory at Arsenal meant City can secure their first trophy of the season in their next game against Chelsea.

Laporte, who has already won four Premier Leagues with City, tweeted a meme of WWE legend the Rock saying he could 'smell' another trophy after the Arsenal result.
