David Seaman believes Arsenal should win the Premier League twice, as well as the Champions League at least once, over the next four years.

The Gunners won their first league title in 22 years in May, finishing seven points ahead of Manchester City. It could have been much more, though, as Mikel Arteta's side reached the Champions League and Carabao Cup finals, but were beaten by PSG and Man City, respectively.

Now, with Arteta signing a new contract until 2030, former goalkeeper Seaman has backed the club to win a number of major honours between now and the end of the Spaniard's deal.

Speaking to Betway, Seaman said: "I would like to have seen him win three or four, and maybe a Champions League as well, because he deserves that for the work that he’s put in. When it wasn’t going very well at Arsenal and there was a lot of criticism, there were a lot of people questioning the process. I was always positive and I could see on the training ground all the work that he was doing, and now people are seeing that.

"I’m so glad that he signed the new contract because he adds stability to the club. The players like to see the same manager because you know where you stand with him.

"We’ve all seen it on the on the documentaries – the players are used to him and how he is in the dressing room, and they know how much he demands of them. His contract is until 2030, so I’ll predict two more Premier Leagues and a Champions League."

Arsenal boast one of the best squads in the Premier League and that's mainly because they have spent big in recent windows. The likes of Martin Zubimendi, Noni Madueke, Viktor Gyokeres and Eberechi Eze joined in 2025, while Bruno Guimaraes, Ezri Konsa, Piero Hincapie (loan deal turned permanent) and Christos Tzolis were signed this summer.

Tzolis joined because Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli were sold, although Arsenal were interested in signing another left winger but ultimately failed to bring one through the doors, despite persistent links to Vinicius Junior. Seaman admitted he was surprised by this and also had his say on the striker debate at the club.

"A little bit surprised they didn’t bring in maybe one more, but in Tzolis it looks like they’ve got a like-for-like replacement for Trossard, if not a little bit better," Seaman said: "He’s still got a lot to prove because Trossard was capable of coming on as a big impact substitution and scoring some big goals.

"Then obviously everybody still looks at the striker situation, and that’s a tough one because in Kai Havertz you’ve got a really intelligent footballer, but is he an out-and-out striker? He likes to drop off a lot more.

"Then with Viktor Gyokeres it’s weird because as soon as he goes away with Sweden, he scores goals. Maybe we don’t play to his strengths as much as we should. You know he can score goals, he’s proven it, it’s just that he’s not been getting the chances."
