Guendouzi insists Arsenal can win Premier League title despite Man City defeat

The 19-year-old midfielder was signed from Lorient this summer and believes the Gunners have what it takes to challenge at the top of the table

Matteo Guendouzi insists Arsenal can win the Premier League this year despite Manchester City’s dominance last season.

The Gunners lost 2-0 to the tile-holders in their opening league game on Sunday and will have to bridge a 37-point deficit from last term to finish as champions.

Midfielder Guendouzi was recruited from Lorient for £7 million ($9m) in the summer, one of a number of new signings made by manager Unai Emery ahead of his first season at the Emirates Stadium.
