Gabriel Agbonlahor has named the favourite club to win the English Premier League title in the upcoming 2024-25 season.
The former Aston Villa star disclosed why Arsenal are favourite to win the title ahead of defending Manchester City.
A former England forward, Agbonlahor also reiterated that the signing of Riccardo Calafiori will boost the Gunners’ chances of winning the league ahead of Pep Guardiola’s side.
“The reason why they [Arsenal] are probably favourites [to win the title] is because, let’s look at last season, they only finished two points behind Manchester City,” Agbonlahor said.
He added, “People forget that it was tight; it might not have seemed tight, but it was. They are not conceding many goals either, and with Calafiori in there as well, he is going to add more stability to that very good back four already there.”
The Premier League season kicks off in two weeks with Manchester City getting their title defence started against Chelsea while Arsenal get their campaign underway against Wolves.
