When did Arsenal last win the Premier League and how many titles have they won?

Arsenal's pursuit of Premier League glory has once again become one of the biggest stories in English football. As Mikel Arteta's side continues to challenge at the top of the table, the conversation around North London increasingly returns to one question: when did Arsenal last lift the league title?
For a club with one of the richest histories in English football, the answer has become more significant with every passing season.
Arsenal's last Premier League title came in 2003/04
The last time Arsenal won the Premier League was during the unforgettable 2003/04 campaign under legendary manager Arsène Wenger.
That season became part of football history because Arsenal completed the entire league campaign without suffering a single defeat, an achievement that earned the squad the famous "Invincibles" nickname.
The Gunners finished with 26 wins, 12 draws, 0 defeats, and 90 points.
Arsenal sealed the title in dramatic fashion at rivals Tottenham Hotspur after a 2-2 draw at White Hart Lane, adding extra emotion to an already historic moment.
The squad featured some of the greatest names in the club's history, including Thierry Henry, Patrick Vieira, Dennis Bergkamp, and Robert Pires. No Premier League team has replicated that unbeaten feat since.
How many League titles have Arsenal won?
Arsenal have won 13 English top-flight league titles in their history.
Their championship-winning seasons are:
- 1930–31
- 1932–33
- 1933–34
- 1934–35
- 1937–38
- 1947–48
- 1952–53
- 1970–71
- 1988–89
- 1990–91
- 1997–98
- 2001–02
- 2003–04
The club sits among England's most successful sides, behind only Manchester United and Liverpool in total league championships. Beyond league success, Arsenal also hold the record for the most FA Cup victories in English football, further underlining their domestic pedigree.
The Wenger era changed Arsenal forever
While Arsenal enjoyed success before the Premier League era, the arrival of Arsène Wenger in 1996 transformed the club's identity.
The Frenchman modernised football operations across several areas, such as training methods, sports science and nutrition, recruitment strategy, and attacking philosophy.
Under Wenger, Arsenal became one of Europe's most entertaining sides and developed an intense rivalry with Alex Ferguson's Manchester United teams.
Between 1997 and 2004, Arsenal won 3 Premier League titles, multiple FA Cups, and several domestic doubles. That period remains widely regarded as the club's greatest modern era.
Can Mikel Arteta end Arsenal's long wait?
Since the Invincibles season, Arsenal have experienced several near misses. They have challenged for titles on multiple occasions and recently finished among the league's strongest teams under Mikel Arteta.
The current project has restored belief around the Emirates Stadium, combining youth, tactical discipline and attacking quality.
However, football history often adds extra pressure rather than reducing it. Every season that passes without another title increases expectations, especially for a club whose standards were built on championship success.
For Arsenal supporters, the question is no longer whether the club has the quality to compete. The bigger question is whether this generation can finally write its own chapter beside the Invincibles.
