Could Mikel Arteta become the youngest-ever Premier League-winning manager?

Apr 26, 2023

Arsenal's Mikel Arteta has had a remarkable season so far, leading the team to their best-ever campaign in years. The 41-year-old manager and former player could become the youngest manager to lift the Premier League trophy, should Arsenal pull off a miracle in the last few games of the season. The current record-holder for the youngest Premier League-winning manager is Jose Mourinho, who lifted the trophy with Chelsea in the 2004/05 season at 42 years and 94 days old. However, if Arteta manages to clinch the title this year, he would take the record from Mourinho by a full 397 days. Despite the uphill battle, Arteta has demonstrated his coaching skills and tactical acumen this season, with improved performances from his team. Arteta would also be the first Spanish manager to win the Premier League, should he achieve the feat. With Arsenal's recent form, it may be an unlikely scenario, but stranger things have happened in football.
