In the current Arsenal squad, there are 5 players who are 27 years old: Martin Ødegaard, Kai Havertz, Eberechi Eze, Martin Zubimendi and Declan Rice.
Back in 2019, Arsenal signed William Saliba for £27M from AS Saint-Étienne, a deal that has become one of the most important long-term investments in the club’s modern era.
And now the number 27 shows up again, but why?
Because it’s been 27 days since Arsenal won the league title.
In the Premier League, a club can submit a maximum of 25 senior players for the official squad registration (the “25-man squad list”).
But the question many are asking is, why 25? Because 25 in this case is exactly the same number of days since Arsenal won the league title.
I respect Messi’s greatness, but I’m fully convinced he’s going goal‑less this World Cup and Argentina are getting grouped. He holds them back.

@mulamwah@SportPesa@YyComedian@ericomondi_ Huyo 2mbili has zero rhythm, his balance and running style tells you he’s not a baller..Football is like dance, you need that rhythm.
It just dawned on me that without his goal against Newcastle we wouldn’t have won the league. Then it struck me that he wears shirt number 23, which coincidentally matches the exact number of days since Arsenal last won the Premier League title.
What a coincidence.
