William Saliba has warned Paris Saint-Germain that Arsenal are hungry for more silverware after ending their 22-year wait for the Premier League title. The Gunners face PSG in the Champions League final in Budapest on 30 May, aiming for an unprecedented Double.
Saliba, who has been instrumental in Arsenal's meanest defence in the league (just 26 goals conceded in 37 games), said: 'It would mean a lot. Now we have started with the Premier League, it is my first one, so I am happy. But I am not full. I want more. And there is a big chance next week in the Champions League, so we have to give everything.'
The defender believes winning the league has boosted the squad's confidence ahead of the final. 'When you win the Premier League, you have more confidence before you approach this final. So, yeah, we're positive,' he added.
Arsenal will face a formidable PSG attack led by Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, but Saliba relishes the challenge. 'We have the best defence this season. And when you are the best, you want to play the best,' he said. 'It is normal that they are the favourites because they won the Champions League last season. We have to fight and if we want to change that, we need to win.'
Saliba also reflected on his journey at Arsenal, which included loan spells before becoming a regular starter. 'It has been a long journey, up and down, but now I am so happy,' he said. 'We have a World Cup coming up. First, we have a final with Arsenal, but we have a World Cup coming up. It's a good time to show myself.'
