Lewis-Skelly can be seen holding a bottle of champagne and joking “they called us bottlers, but now we’re holding the bottles!”
Arsenal can still secure memorable Premier League and Champions League double
Arsenal’s season has already been a major success, but they won’t be done yet, with the club now preparing to take on Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final.
The players’ confidence will be sky high after finally winning the title, and it will be interesting to see if that helps them in a game where they’ll most likely be seen as underdogs.
Arsenal have never won the Champions League before, and this will be only their second ever final, with PSG the reigning European champions.

For now, Arsenal will just want to celebrate this success as they prepare to lift the Premier League trophy at Selhurst Park this weekend.
But the celebrations can’t go on too long as they’ll need to be in the right frame of mind for their trip to Budapest to take on PSG at the end of the month.
