# 2024–25 Arsenal F.C. season

The 2024–25 season is Arsenal Football Club's 33rd season in the Premier League, their 99th consecutive season in the top flight of English football, and 108th season in the top flight overall. In addition to the domestic league, Arsenal is also participating in this season's editions of the FA Cup, EFL Cup and UEFA Champions League, the latter of which is their 39th European campaign. The season covers the period from 1 July 2024 to 30 June 2025.

## Review
### Background

The 2023–24 campaign was a record-breaking season for Arsenal. They kicked off their campaign by winning the FA Community Shield for the 17th time in their history.
The Gunners were the third-youngest team in the 2023–24 Premier League with an average starting age of 25 years and 158 days. They scored 91 goals in the Premier League, their highest-ever total in the competition. It was the most they had netted in a league campaign since 1952–53. Arteta's side conceded just 29 goals in the Premier League – five fewer than the second-lowest team. This was Arsenal's best defensive record for 20 years. They finished with a goal difference of +62 in the division, their highest-ever total in the competition's history. The Gunners kept 18 clean sheets (7 at home, 11 on the road) in the league, five more than the second-highest sides.
Arsenal won 28 Premier League games in the 2023–24 season, their highest tally in a top-flight campaign since 1970–71. The Gunners picked up 89 points, the second-highest total in their history. However, this was still not enough to win the Premier League title. Arteta's side ended their season as runners-up – the third-best second-placed team in the competition's history – two points behind champions Manchester City.
After a six-year absence, Arsenal started their 20th UEFA Champions League campaign since the 1992–93 season in September 2023. They finished the group stage as winners of Group B, with the highest goal difference of any team (+12). The Gunners progressed to the quarter-final of the Champions League for the first time since 2009–10, ending a run of seven consecutive last-16 eliminations in the competition. Their first Champions League campaign in seven years finished in the last eight, after a 3–2 aggregate loss to German side Bayern Munich.

### Pre-season

The UEFA Euro 2024 took place in Germany from 14 June to 14 July. Ten Arsenal players (excluding loaned out players) were named in squads for the tournament: Leandro Trossard (Belgium), Aaron Ramsdale, Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka (England), William Saliba (France), Kai Havertz (Germany), Jorginho (Italy), Jakub Kiwior (Poland), David Raya (Spain), and Oleksandr Zinchenko (Ukraine). Raya became a Euro 2024 winner as Spain beat England in the final.
Gabriel Magalhães and Gabriel Martinelli were named in Brazil's squad for the 2024 Copa América, held in the United States from 20 June to 14 July. Brazil were eliminated in the quarter-finals on 6 July.
On 24 June, Arsenal announced that Estonian goalkeeper and academy graduate Karl Hein had signed a new contract.
It was reported on 15 July that the first-team players who hadn't been away on international duty at Euro 2024 or Copa América were back to the London Colney training ground for pre-season training.
On 21 July, manager Arteta named an initial 26-man squad – including 12 academy players – for the trip to the United States where they would play three friendlies.
Three days later, Arsenal faced Premier League side Bournemouth at Dignity Health Sports Park in Carson, California. Fábio Vieira gave the Gunners a first-half lead with a volley. The Cherries equalised through a deflected Antoine Semenyo effort in the second half. Following the game, a pre-planned penalty shootout took place, which saw Arteta's side triumph 5–4 with Kiwior netting the winning spot-kick after Hein made two saves.
On 27 July, the Gunners took on Premier League club Manchester United at SoFi Stadium, the home of the National Football League's Los Angeles Rams which is also owned by Kroenke Sports and Entertainment. Rasmus Højlund gave United an early lead. Gabriel Jesus levelled for Arteta's side with a close-range finish. Substitute Martinelli scored a late goal, helping Arsenal win 2–1. In the post-match penalty shootout, United won 4–3 following misses from Havertz and Kiwior.
Arsenal played their third and final game of the 10-day USA tour against Premier League side Liverpool at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia on 31 July. Goals from Mohamed Salah and Fábio Carvalho gave Liverpool a 2–0 lead. The Gunners pulled one back through Havertz's close-range shot, but they were unable to find an equaliser. After the game, Arteta's team flew back to London overnight.
On 6 August, the club confirmed that Zinchenko would wear the number 17 shirt, moving from his previous number 35.
The Gunners continued their preparations for the new season with a 4–1 win over reigning Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen at Emirates Stadium on 7 August. Zinchenko, Trossard and Gabriel Jesus all scored in the first half. Havertz then added a fourth after half-time. Xabi Alonso's side claimed a late consolation through Adam Hložek.
Arsenal finished their pre-season campaign by beating Ligue 1 side Lyon 2–0 to claim the 2024 Emirates Cup on 11 August. Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães both scored from Rice corners in the first half. New signing Riccardo Calafiori made his non-competitive debut for the Gunners as a substitute in the 64th minute.

#### First-team transfers (summer transfer window)

The Premier League summer transfer window ran from 14 June to 30 August 2024. Arsenal announced on 3 June that they were to release 22 players, two of whom, Mohamed Elneny and Cédric Soares, made 161 and 64 appearances for the Gunners' first-team in all competitions respectively.
On 4 July, the club confirmed that they had completed the permanent signing of 28-year-old Spanish goalkeeper and reigning Premier League Golden Glove winner David Raya from Premier League side Brentford on a long-term deal after the Spaniard's initial loan spell with the Gunners in 2023–24. The transfer fee was reported to be £27 million. He is the fifteenth player from Spain to represent Arsenal's first team.
On 15 July, the Gunners announced the departures of two first-team players: Belgian midfielder Albert Sambi Lokonga joined La Liga club Sevilla on a season-long loan, and Portuguese defender Nuno Tavares joined Serie A side Lazio on a one-year loan.
Arsenal confirmed on 29 July that 22-year-old Italian defender Riccardo Calafiori had joined the club on a long-term contract from Serie A side Bologna, for a reported fee of an initial £33.6 million (€40 million), which could reach £42 million (€50 million) with add-ons. He would wear the number 33 shirt, and would be the fourth Italian to feature for the Gunners in competitive action.
On 2 August, the club announced that English midfielder and academy graduate Emile Smith Rowe, who had made 115 first-team appearances in all competitions for the Gunners, joined Premier League side Fulham on a permanent transfer. The fee was reported to be an initial £27 million, potentially rising to £34 million in add-ons.
The Gunners confirmed on 13 August that Estonian goalkeeper Karl Hein had joined La Liga side Real Valladolid on a one-year loan.
On 27 August, Arsenal announced that 28-year-old Spanish midfielder and Euro 2024 winner Mikel Merino had joined the club from La Liga side Real Sociedad on a long-term contract. The transfer fee was reported to be an initial £27.4 million (€32.5 million), with a further £4.2 million (€5 million) in add-ons. He would take the number 23 shirt, and would be the sixteenth Spaniard to play for Arsenal's first team.
On 28 August, the club confirmed the loan departure of Portuguese midfielder Fábio Vieira to Primeira Liga side Porto until the end of the season.
On English transfer deadline day, 30 August, Arsenal announced that the club had signed 35-year-old Brazilian goalkeeper Neto on a season-long loan from Premier League side Bournemouth. He would take the number 32 shirt. On the night 29-year-old English forward Raheem Sterling joined Arsenal on a one-year loan from Premier League club Chelsea after a deal sheet was submitted to allow his move to go through beyond the transfer deadline. He would wear the number 30 shirt.
On the same day, the Gunners confirmed the departures of three first-team players: English Goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale joined Premier League side Southampton on a permanent transfer for a reported fee of £18 million with £7 million in add-ons. English striker and academy graduate Eddie Nketiah, who had made 168 first-team appearances in all competitions for the Gunners, joined Premier League club Crystal Palace on a permanent deal. The fee was reported to be an initial £25 million, potentially rising to £30 million in add-ons. English forward and academy graduate Reiss Nelson joined Premier League side Fulham on a season-long loan.
After the summer transfer window closed, there were twenty-two players in the first-team squad: two goalkeepers, nine defenders, six midfielders, and five forwards. Six other first-team players were out on loan.

### August

Arteta's side kicked off their Premier League campaign with a 2–0 win over Wolverhampton Wanderers at home on 17 August. Havertz headed in a 25th-minute opener from Saka's cross before the roles were reversed on 74 minutes as Saka picked up Havertz's pass and rifled into the near post. Arsenal goalkeeper Raya made two vital saves to keep out Jørgen Strand Larsen's close-range header and Pablo Sarabia's first-time volley. The result meant that the Gunners had scored in each of their last 34 meetings with Wolves in all competitions, the longest scoring streak against an opponent in the club's history.
On 24 August, Arsenal played their first away game of the season against Aston Villa, the only side to complete the league double over the Gunners in the previous campaign. The hosts thought they had taken the lead on 54 minutes when Amadou Onana's deflected shot looped up onto the crossbar, with the rebound falling for an unmarked Ollie Watkins to head home from close range, only for Arsenal goalkeeper Raya to get off the ground to make a stunning one-handed stop, which would later win August 2024's Premier League Save of the Month award. Substitute Trossard broke the deadlock in the 67th minute, sweeping home with his first touch. Partey scored his first away goal in the Premier League on 77 minutes with a long-range effort. Two minutes later, manager Arteta sent on new signing Calafiori for his Gunners debut. The 2–0 win meant that Arsenal had won their first two games in a top-flight campaign without conceding for the third time in their history, after previously doing so in 1924–25 and 1971–72.
On 30 August, Arsenal announced that new recruit Mikel Merino, who joined the club just three days prior, suffered a shoulder injury in his first training session with the team. He would be out of action for a few weeks. Gabriel Jesus and Takehiro Tomiyasu were also out injured.
A day later, the Gunners played at home against Brighton & Hove Albion. Arteta was forced to name four academy players on the bench because deadline-day signings Neto and Raheem Sterling were not registered in time to play in this match and there were no other fit senior players up until that point. Arsenal controlled the first half and took the lead in the 38th minute as Havertz lobbed the onrushing goalkeeper from outside of the box. But the game completely changed four minutes into the second half when Rice was shown the first red card of his career by referee Chris Kavanagh, after the midfielder received a controversial second yellow card for "delaying" Joël Veltman's free-kick near the touchline deep in Brighton's half. The visitors equalised on 58 minutes as Pedro tucked home the rebound after Raya saved Yankuba Minteh's shot. 10-man Arsenal fought hard to prevent conceding another goal and the game ended 1–1.

### September

Twelve Arsenal players (excluding players who were loaned out) were named in their respective countries' senior squads for international fixtures in September: Gabriel Magalhães (Brazil), Rice and Saka (England), Saliba (France), Partey (as Ghana's captain), Havertz (Germany), Calafiori (Italy), Jurriën Timber (Netherlands), Martin Ødegaard (as Norway's captain), Kiwior (Poland), Raya (Spain), and Zinchenko (Ukraine).
On 4 September, the club submitted their 2024–25 Champions League squad for the league phase of the competition. Twenty-two first-team players and young goalkeeper Tommy Setford who joined Arsenal's academy from Dutch side Ajax in July 2024, were registered on the Squad List A. Nine days later, the club confirmed that 22 first-team players and 48 under-21 players were registered on the 2024–25 Premier League Squad List for the first half of the season.
Arsenal announced on 12 September that manager Arteta had signed a new contract with the club, reportedly keeping him at Emirates Stadium until 2027. A day later, Arsenal confirmed that Ødegaard suffered an ankle injury during Norway's game against Austria on 9 September, and Calafiori also returned from Italy duty with a calf injury.
The Gunners continued their Premier League campaign with a North London derby away against 10th-placed Tottenham Hotspur on 15 September. Arteta faced a sudden lack of midfield options and was forced to name five academy players on the bench, because six first-team players were injured and Rice was suspended up until that point. In the 64th minute, Gabriel Magalhães netted the only goal of the game with a header from Saka's corner, becoming the fourth Arsenal player to score 10+ headed goals in the Premier League. New loan signing Sterling made his debut for Arsenal as a substitute on 80 minutes. The 1–0 win meant that the Gunners had won six consecutive Premier League away matches for the first time since 2013, and they had won three consecutive away North London derbies for the first time since 1988. The result sent them back to the second of the Premier League table.
Arsenal opened their 2024–25 Champions League campaign in Bergamo, Italy, facing the previous season's Europa League champions Atalanta on 19 September. In the 48th minute with the score at 0–0, the hosts were awarded a penalty after Partey had fouled Éderson. However, Raya made a brilliant double save to keep out Mateo Retegui's attempt and follow-up header. He became the fourth Arsenal goalkeeper to save a penalty in the Champions League, after Richard Wright, Jens Lehmann and Łukasz Fabiański. The game ended goalless.
The Gunners played their third consecutive away game in seven days against 1st-placed Manchester City on 22 September. Erling Haaland opened the scoring early on for the hosts. Arteta's side drew level with a long-range stunner scored by Calafiori, then took the lead through a Gabriel Magalhães header. However in the final seconds of the first half, Trossard was given a controversial second yellow card for "kicking the ball away and delaying a restart" by referee Michael Oliver. It was later revealed by broadcaster Sky Sports that there was just 0.84 seconds between Oliver's whistle and Trossard kicking the ball way. 10-man Arsenal battled hard in the second half until the eighth minute of stoppage time when John Stones latched onto a rebound and netted an equaliser for the hosts. The game also saw academy player Myles Lewis-Skelly make his senior debut for the Gunners as a substitute in the second half. In the post-match press conference, Arteta confirmed that White came on to help the team for the second-half despite being injured.
Arsenal's 2024–25 EFL Cup campaign began in the third round against League One side Bolton Wanderers at home on 25 September. Arteta opted to rest several first-team players and chose a youthful line-up with an average age of 23 years and 87 days – the youngest starting XI the Spaniard has named in his near-five-year spell as Gunners boss. With number one stopper Raya and 18-year-old understudy Tommy Setford injured and summer loan signing Neto cup-tied, Arteta called on Arsenal's fourth choice Jack Porter, who at 16 years and 72 days became the youngest goalkeeper to play for Arsenal's first team, and the youngest player to start an Arsenal first-team match. Another debutant Josh Nichols also received his first start. Rice put the Gunners ahead on 16 minutes. Ethan Nwaneri netted his first two senior goals for Arsenal in the 37th and 49th minute respectively, becoming the youngest player to score for the club's first team since 2008, and to notch a brace since 2004. Aaron Collins pulled one back for Bolton on 53 minutes. Sterling netted his first Arsenal goal in the 64th minute. Defender Maldini Kacurri made his senior debut as a substitute in the 70th minute, becoming the first Albanian national to represent Arsenal's first team in the club's history. Havertz wrapped up the scoring on 77 minutes. Young winger Ismeal Kabia received his debut in the 81st minute. The 5–1 result advanced Arsenal to the next round.
On 28 September, Arteta's side played at home against newly promoted Leicester City. Martinelli opened the scoring for Arsenal, ending his 19-game goal drought dating back to 4 March. Trossard doubled the lead on the stroke of half-time. But James Justin's deflected header and first-time volley after the interval brought Leicester back level. The Gunners restored their two-goal advantage in second-half stoppage time through a Wilfred Ndidi own goal and a close-range Havertz strike. The 4–2 victory put Arsenal a point behind leaders Liverpool.

### October

Arsenal returned to Champions League action on 1 October, hosting the previous season's Ligue 1 champions and Champions League semi-finalists Paris Saint-Germain. The Gunners took the lead in the 20th minute when Havertz headed in Trossard's cross. Fifteen minutes later, Saka curled a low free-kick from wide on the right into a crowded penalty area; the ball somehow evaded everyone and flew straight into the back of the net. It was Arsenal's first direct free-kick goal in the Champions League since November 2002 when Thierry Henry scored one against Italian side Roma. In the 64th minute Arteta handed a belated debut to summer signing Merino who had recovered from a shoulder injury. The game ended 2–0.
Ahead of the second international break of the campaign, Arteta's men played their seventh match in 21 days on 5 October when they faced newly promoted Southampton at home. Second-half goals from Havertz, Martinelli and Saka saw the Gunners come from behind to win 3–1 and extend their unbeaten start to the season to ten games. This was Arsenal's 400th Premier League home victory, making them the second side to reach the milestone. Havertz became the first Arsenal player to score in seven consecutive home appearances in all competitions since 2011–12.
Ten Arsenal players (excluding loaned out players) joined up with their respective senior national teams for international fixtures in October: Trossard (Belgium), Gabriel Magalhães and Martinelli (Brazil), Rice and Saka (England), Saliba (France), Calafiori (Italy), Kiwior (Poland), Merino and Raya (Spain).
Following the international break, Arsenal faced 13th-placed Bournemouth away on 19 October. Already missing Ødegaard and Saka through injury, the Gunners lost Saliba in the 30th minute as the French centre-back was shown the first red card of his career for a foul on Evanilson near the halfway line after a poor backwards pass from Trossard. Saliba was initially given a yellow card, but the referee upgraded his decision to a red after being instructed to check the pitchside monitor by video assistant referee Jarred Gillett. Martinelli missed a golden chance to put 10-man Arsenal in front on 69 minutes, shooting straight at the Bournemouth goalkeeper from close range. Just a minute later, Ryan Christie broke the deadlock with a first-time shot following a Bournemouth corner routine. Kiwior's loose backpass on 77 minutes resulted in the hosts scoring a decisive second goal from the penalty spot. The 2–0 loss was Arsenal's first defeat of the season, and their first away loss in the Premier League in 2024.
Arteta's side hosted the previous season's Ukrainian Premier League champions Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League on 22 October. In the 29th minute, Martinelli's low shot hit the post and then rebounded back into the net off Shakhtar goalkeeper Dmytro Riznyk. The Gunners had the chance to extend the lead in the final 20 minutes, as Merino's cross was handled and they were awarded a penalty after a VAR review. But Trossard's spot-kick was poor and saved by Riznyk. In stoppage time Raya produced a flying save to deny Pedrinho's long-range shot, helping Arsenal win 1–0. The result meant that the Gunners had recorded three successive clean sheets in the Champions League for the first time since 2007.
On 27 October, the Gunners played at home against 1st-placed Liverpool. Saka opened the scoring in the ninth minute with a near-post finish, becoming the youngest Arsenal player to net 50 Premier League goals. Virgil van Dijk levelled for Liverpool on 18 minutes with a close-range header. Arteta's side retook the lead in the 41st minute when Merino headed home his first Arsenal goal from Rice's free-kick. The Gunners were undermined by injuries to key defenders Gabriel Magalhães and Timber after the break, having already been without the suspended Saliba and injured Calafiori. The pressure on their backline was consequently mounting before Liverpool equalised through Mohamed Salah on 81 minutes. In second-half stoppage time Gabriel Jesus bundled the ball home, but referee Anthony Taylor had already blown for a foul by Kiwior in the build-up. The game ended 2–2.
Arsenal continued their EFL Cup campaign on 30 October, facing Championship side Preston North End away in the fourth round. Arteta handed a belated debut to teenage goalkeeper Tommy Setford, who missed the third-round game against Bolton Wanderers through injury in September. Gabriel Jesus opened the scoring for the Gunners, ending his 24-game goal drought dating back to 30 January. Nwaneri doubled the lead with a curling effort into the top corner, becoming the youngest player to net in each of his first two starts for Arsenal. Second-half substitute Havertz rounded off the scoring with a header. Young defender Ayden Heaven received his debut in the final ten minutes. The 3–0 result advanced Arsenal to the quarter-finals.

### November

The Gunners faced 12th-placed Newcastle United away on 2 November. Alexander Isak scored the only goal of the game for the hosts in the 12th minute. Arsenal had good chances to draw level, with Merino's shot blocked on the line and Rice heading wide from close range in either half. This was the first time since May 2022 that Arsenal had lost successive away matches in the Premier League. It was revealed later that Rice had suffered a broken toe in this game.
Arteta's men made the trip to Italy for the Champions League match against the previous season's Serie A champions Inter Milan on 6 November. Ødegaard returned to the bench after missing 12 Arsenal games with injury. The Gunners had a penalty shout in the 28th minute when Merino appeared to beat Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer to a high ball in the box and took a punch to the head in the process, but VAR decided not to overturn a no-penalty decision. In first-half stoppage time, the hosts were awarded a spot-kick after the ball ricocheted into Merino's arm at close range, although he did not have time to move his arm out of the way. Hakan Çalhanoğlu then scored from the penalty spot – Inter's only shot on target throughout the game. Arsenal dominated the second half but could not find a way past the hosts' defence. The 1–0 defeat was Arsenal's third away loss in 18 days.
On 10 November, the Gunners faced 4th-placed Chelsea away in their final fixture before the third international break of the season. After a scoreless first half that saw Havertz had a goal ruled out for offside by VAR, Martinelli put Arsenal in front on the hour mark when he tucked home a cross by Ødegaard, who made his first start since 31 August. Pedro Neto slammed in from distance to drag the hosts level 10 minutes later. Arsenal squandered a golden chance in stoppage time, as Saliba played an inviting ball across the Chelsea box, but Trossard poked wide from close range, with Havertz waiting to tap home behind him. The 1–1 draw meant that the Gunners had gone four consecutive Premier League matches without a win for the first time since April 2023, putting them nine points behind leaders Liverpool.
A run of early-season injuries for Arteta's side continued, as it was reported on 13 November that White had undergone a surgery to resolve a knee issue that he had been carrying for weeks, and would be sidelined for about two months.
Ten Arsenal players (excluding players who were loaned out) joined up with their respective senior national teams for international fixtures in November: Trossard (Belgium), Gabriel Magalhães and Martinelli (Brazil), Saliba (France), Havertz (Germany), Timber (Netherlands), Kiwior (Poland), Merino and Raya (Spain), and Zinchenko (Ukraine).
The Gunners played at home against 5th-placed Nottingham Forest on 23 November. This was Arteta's 250th game in charge of Arsenal in all competitions, the 10th manager to reach the milestone for the club. Goals early in each half from Saka and Partey gave the Gunners a 2–0 lead. Nwaneri netted a late goal, becoming Arsenal's second-youngest scorer in the Premier League. The win was the Gunners' 2,000th in English top-flight history, making them the second side to reach this landmark.
On 26 November, Arsenal recorded their biggest away win in the Champions League since 2003 by thumping the previous season's Primeira Liga champions Sporting CP 5–1 in Lisbon, Portugal. Saliba made his 100th senior appearance for the Gunners, and Ødegaard made his first Champions League start of the season. Martinelli tapped in an early opener, before Havertz finished a team goal and Gabriel Magalhães headed home a corner on the stroke of half-time. Although Gonçalo Inácio pulled one back for Sporting shortly after the break, Saka's penalty and Trossard's header from a rebound secured Arsenal's victory. This was the first time since 2008 that the Gunners had scored five or more goals in an away game in the Champions League, and was the first time since 2008 that they had had five different scorers (excluding own goals) in a major European away match. The win lifted Arsenal into the top eight automatic qualification positions of the Champions League league phase.
Arteta's side faced 14th-placed West Ham United away on 30 November, winning 5–2 to move up to second place in the Premier League table. All seven goals came in the first half – equalling the Premier League record for the highest number of goals in a first half, with Gabriel Magalhães, Trossard, Ødegaard and Havertz putting the Gunners 4–0 up after 35 minutes. Two quickfire strikes from the hosts halved the deficit. Saka wrapped up the scoring with a penalty just before the break. This was the first time in Premier League history that Arsenal have scored two first-half penalties, as Ødegaard had also dispatched from the spot.

### December

On 4 December, Arsenal played their 500th competitive men's first-team game at Emirates Stadium against 9th-placed Manchester United. Timber broke the deadlock on 54 minutes when he flicked Rice's corner in at the near post for his first Gunners goal. In the 67th minute, Raya made a one-handed save at full stretch to claw away Matthijs de Ligt's header from a free-kick. Arteta's side doubled their advantage in the 73rd minute, as Saka's far-post corner was headed back across by Partey, the ball bounced in off Saliba's backside. The 2–0 win meant that Arsenal had won four consecutive league games against Manchester United for the first time in their history.
Arteta's side faced 6th-placed Fulham away on 8 December. Ødegaard made his 100th start as Arsenal's captain. Raúl Jiménez put the hosts ahead in the 11th minute. Saliba levelled for the Gunners with a close-range finish from a corner routine on 52 minutes. Saka headed home in the 88th minute, but the goal was ruled out after VAR review for offside against Martinelli in the build-up. The 1–1 draw put Arsenal six points behind leaders Liverpool who had a game in hand.
The Gunners hosted the previous season's Ligue 1 runners-up Monaco in the Champions League on 11 December. 18-year-old Myles Lewis-Skelly was handed his first Champions League start, becoming the youngest player to start for Arsenal in the competition since 2011. He played a key role in Saka's opener in the first half. After the break, Saka scored again and assisted substitute Havertz, helping his side win 3–0. The result moved Arsenal up to third in the Champions League standings.
Arsenal played at home against 15th-placed Everton on 14 December. The Gunners dominated the game and had many chances to score, especially in the first half, but failed to convert any. The match finished 0–0. This was Arsenal's first goalless draw at the Emirates since January 2023. Arteta's side remained third, six points behind Liverpool having played a game more than the Reds.
Four days later, Arsenal hosted Premier League side Crystal Palace in the EFL Cup quarter-finals. The visitors took the lead early through a Jean-Philippe Mateta finish. The Gunners turned the game around in the second half when Gabriel Jesus scored a hat-trick, ending his 367-day Emirates goal drought dating back to 17 December 2023. Former Arsenal player Eddie Nketiah brought one back for Palace late on. The 3–2 result advanced Arsenal to the semi-finals for the first time since 2021–22 season.
Arteta's men crossed the capital to face Crystal Palace again in the Premier League on 21 December. They wore black armbands in remembrance of George Eastham, who served as Arsenal captain between 1963 and 1966 and was a member of England's 1966 World Cup-winning squad, following the earlier news of his passing. Gabriel Jesus netted two early goals for Arsenal, either side of Ismaïla Sarr's equaliser; while Havertz, Martinelli and Rice all found the net. Raya made several crucial saves during the game, helping the Gunners win 5–1. The victory marked the final away match of 2024 for Arsenal, making them the first team in English top-flight history to score five or more goals in six different away games in all competitions across a full calendar year. The result also meant that the Gunners became the first side to remain unbeaten in Premier League London derbies in a single calendar year since 2005.
On 23 December, Arteta confirmed in the pre-match press conference that Saka would be out for a lengthy period after suffering a hamstring injury in the game against Crystal Palace two days prior, and Sterling would also be sidelined for weeks after picking up a knee injury in training three days prior.
Arsenal ended 2024 with a 1–0 win over newly promoted Ipswich Town at home on 27 December. Havertz scored the only goal of the game, helping his side climb to second place in the Premier League table. Raya registered his 23rd clean sheet in 50 Premier League appearances for the Gunners, breaking David Seaman's record (22) set in 1993 for the most clean sheets kept by a goalkeeper in his first 50 appearances for Arsenal in the division. This was the first time since 2021 that the Gunners had kept four consecutive home clean sheets in the competition. In the post-match presser, Arteta revealed Saka had undergone surgery to repair his hamstring.

### January

The Gunners started 2025 with a trip to Brentford on New Year's Day. 17-year-old Ethan Nwaneri was handed his first Premier League start, becoming the youngest player to start for Arsenal in the competition since 2006. Bryan Mbeumo gave the hosts an early lead, but a Gabriel Jesus first-half header and second-half strikes from Merino and Martinelli turned the game around. This was the first time since February 2023 that Arsenal had won a Premier League away match in which they fell 1–0 behind. Arteta's side reached the halfway point of the league campaign with eleven wins, six draws, two losses and 39 points from 19 games, six points behind leaders Liverpool who had a game in hand.
Arteta's side faced 10th-placed Brighton & Hove Albion away on 4 January. Nwaneri netted a 16th-minute opener on his second Premier League start, becoming the first Arsenal player to score more than once in the competition before turning 18 years old. But he was forced off with a muscular issue at half-time and was replaced by Martinelli, who made his 200th senior appearance for the Gunners. In the 59th minute, Brighton forward João Pedro flicked the ball up in the Arsenal box. Saliba went to head it away, accidentally making contact with Pedro's head in the air. However, referee Anthony Taylor awarded the hosts a controversial penalty after a few seconds of reflection, adjudging Saliba to have fouled Pedro, and VAR confirmed the decision. Pedro then fired home the equaliser from the spot. Upon replay, it was clear that Saliba had touched the ball with his head as it deviated away from him in a different direction, before the clash of heads. The game ended 1–1.
Arsenal suffered their first home defeat of the season with a 2–0 loss to Newcastle United in the EFL Cup semi-final first leg on 7 January. The Gunners dominated the game and had plenty of chances to score, but failed to convert any. In fact, they created more than 3.0 expected goals (xG) from 23 shots throughout the 90 minutes. Alexander Isak and Anthony Gordon netted either side of the interval for the visitors. The result meant that the Magpies departed north London with a two-goal lead heading into the return fixture, which would be on 5 February.
On 12 January, the Gunners entered the FA Cup in the third round, facing Manchester United at home. Gabriel Jesus was stretchered off in the first half after an aerial challenge. Bruno Fernandes opened the scoring for the visitors in the second half. Arsenal levelled through Gabriel Magalhães after Diogo Dalot was sent off for a second bookable offence. Ødegaard then saw his penalty saved, and further missed chances – from Havertz and Rice among others – sent the match to extra-time. After a goalless extra 30 minutes, the tie finished 1–1. The Gunners ultimately lost 5–3 on penalties after Havertz's spot-kick was saved. Two days later, Arsenal confirmed that Gabriel Jesus had sustained an injury to the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee and was set for surgery. The club did not give a timeframe for his absence.
Arsenal returned to Premier League action on 15 January, hosting 12th-placed Tottenham Hotspur in the second North London derby of the season. Son Heung-Min's deflected effort gave the visitors the lead, but a Dominic Solanke own goal and a Trossard strike turned the game around before half-time. There were no further goals in the second half and the game ended 2–1. The result meant that the Gunners had won three consecutive league matches against their nearest rivals for the first time since 1989.
Arteta's side played at home against 7th-placed Aston Villa on 18 January. The hosts took a 2–0 lead courtesy of close-range goals from Martinelli and Havertz either side of half-time. Villa's Youri Tielemans and Ollie Watkins both struck to level the scores. Arsenal thought they had found a late winner when Merino's shot deflected off Havertz into the net, but it was ruled out for handball after a swift VAR review. This was the first time since October 2019 that the Gunners had failed to win a Premier League home game in which they had led by two or more goals.
Arsenal hosted the previous season's Croatian League champions Dinamo Zagreb in the Champions League on 22 January. The match saw several records set. Arteta's side took the lead in the second minute when Havertz cushioned a cross into the path of Rice, who volleyed home his first Champions League goal and Arsenal's earliest in the competition since 2014. The Gunners doubled their advantage on 66 minutes as Havertz headed in his 14th goal of the season in all competitions, matching his total from the previous term. It was also the 500th goal Arsenal had scored in all competitions under manager Arteta. In the 74th minute, Trossard came off the bench to replace Havertz, becoming the second Belgian to reach 100 appearances for the club, after former Arsenal captain Thomas Vermaelen. Ødegaard added a third in stoppage time as he tucked in Trossard's deflected cross. The game also saw academy player Nathan Butler-Oyedeji come on for the final few minutes to make his senior debut for the Gunners. The 3–0 victory meant that Arsenal had won three consecutive Champions League games by three or more goals for the first time in their history.
The Gunners' eighth match of the month was against 17th-placed Wolverhampton Wanderers on the road on 25 January. Academy players Lewis-Skelly and Nwaneri were both named in the starting line-up, becoming the first two English players aged 18 or under to start a Premier League game together for Arsenal since 1998. In the 43rd minute, Lewis-Skelly tripped Matt Doherty just outside the Wolves box to stop the hosts' defender breaking from an Arsenal corner. However, referee Michael Oliver controversially showed a straight red card to the 18-year-old for "serious foul play", and the decision was quickly checked and cleared by video assistant referee Darren England. In the 63rd minute, Raya produced a full-stretch save to deny Matheus Cunha's deflected shot. Seven minutes later, Wolves midfielder João Gomes received a second yellow for a studs-up challenge on Timber, which left both sides a man down for the remainder of the match. In the 74th minute, substitute Calafiori netted the only goal of the game for the Gunners. It was reported on 28 January that Lewis-Skelly would not serve a three-match suspension after Arsenal's appeal against his red card at Wolves was upheld by an FA's independent regulatory commission. The written reasons published by the regulatory commission stated that "the Commission members were unanimous in their opinion that the Referee had made an obvious error in sending off MLS for the challenge that he had made." "MLS had stepped across his opponent and tripped him up, possibly deliberately, but in doing so he had obviously not endangered the safety of his opponent or used excessive force or brutality, nor had he 'lunged' in at his opponent."
Arsenal made the trip to Spain on 29 January for the final Champions League league-phase game against La Liga side Girona. Arteta handed a belated debut to summer loan signing Neto, who at 35 years and 194 days became Arsenal's oldest debutant since 1915; while Gabriel Magalhães made his 200th senior appearance for the Gunners. Arnaut Danjuma opened the scoring for the hosts in the 28th minute. Jorginho equalised with a spot-kick on 38 minutes. Nwaneri put Arsenal ahead with a curling effort four minutes later, becoming the second-youngest Englishman to score a Champions League goal after Jude Bellingham. Girona thought they had drawn level through Cristhian Stuani in the 77th minute, only for VAR to intervene for offside in the build-up. In stoppage time Sterling saw his penalty saved by Girona goalkeeper. The 2–1 victory meant that the Gunners had secured consecutive away wins in the competition for the first time since December 2016. Arteta's side finished third in the Champions League league phase and bypassed February's play-off round to go straight to the last 16.

#### First-team transfers (winter transfer window)

The Premier League winter transfer window ran from 1 January to 3 February 2025.
On 9 January, Arsenal announced that Brazilian forward Marquinhos had joined Série A side Cruzeiro on loan until December 2025.
The club did not sign any player in the winter transfer window. After the transfer window closed, there were twenty-two players in the first-team squad: two goalkeepers, nine defenders, six midfielders, and five forwards. Six other first-team players were out on loan.

### February

The Gunners played at home against 4th-placed Manchester City on 2 February. Ødegaard put Arsenal ahead in the 2nd minute with a tap-in following a Havertz pass. Raya made two vital saves to keep out Joško Gvardiol's close-range header and Savinho's low strike in the first half. City drew level on 55 minutes through Erling Haaland, but the hosts retook the lead just a minute later through Partey's deflected strike from outside the box. In the 62nd minute, 18-year-old Lewis-Skelly took a pass from Rice and curled a right-footed shot beyond visiting goalkeeper Stefan Ortega for his first senior goal. Havertz then made it four after a swift counter-attack on 76 minutes. In stoppage time Rice launched a long pass from the left flank to 17-year-old Nwaneri, who cut inside from the right and fired a long-range curling effort around Ortega into the bottom corner. This was the first time Arsenal had had two teenagers scoring for the club in the same league game since 1986. The 5–1 victory was the Gunners' biggest win over Manchester City since 2003, and their biggest-ever win over the reigning Premier League champions in their history. Arteta became the third manager to go five games unbeaten in all competitions against City boss Pep Guardiola, after Thomas Tuchel and Jürgen Klopp. The result saw Arsenal extend their unbeaten run to 14 consecutive Premier League games for the first time under Arteta.
Arsenal travelled to Newcastle United for the second leg of their EFL Cup semi-final on 5 February. Goals from Jacob Murphy and Anthony Gordon either side of half-time knocked the Gunners out of the competition with an aggregate scoreline of 4–0. The game also saw Martinelli limp off the pitch with a hamstring injury on 37 minutes. It was later reported that he would be sidelined for more than a month.
On 6 February, the squad travelled to Dubai, United Arab Emirates for a warm-weather training camp. They flew back to England on 11 February.
Ten days after the winter transfer window closed, the club confirmed on 13 February that Havertz would miss the rest of the season after sustaining a torn hamstring during their training camp in Dubai. With Gabriel Jesus, Martinelli and Saka already sidelined through injury, Havertz's absence left Arteta with just two first-team forwards to choose from up front in Sterling and Trossard.
The Gunners returned to action with a game against 17th-placed Leicester City away on 15 February. With the score standing at 0–0 in the 69th minute, Arteta brought on midfielder Merino as a makeshift striker. The Spaniard broke the deadlock on 81 minutes when he headed home a cross from Nwaneri, who became the youngest Arsenal player to assist a Premier League goal since 2008. Six minutes later, Merino netted his second of the afternoon at the back post to seal the win, becoming the first Arsenal player to score twice as a substitute in a Premier League away game since 2018.
On 19 February, the club confirmed that Tomiyasu had undergone surgery to his right knee and would be out until the end of 2025.
Arsenal suffered their first home defeat of the Premier League season with a 1–0 loss to 16th-placed West Ham United on 22 February. Jarrod Bowen scored the decisive goal on 44 minutes following a swift counter-attack, helping his side secure back-to-back wins at Emirates Stadium. In the 73rd minute, substitute Lewis-Skelly had a yellow card upgraded to a red for denying a goalscoring opportunity on the halfway line following a VAR check. The result ended the Gunners' 15-game unbeaten run in the Premier League, and put them eight points behind leaders Liverpool, who would beat Manchester City on the following day, albeit having played a game more than Arsenal.
The Gunners faced 3rd-placed Nottingham Forest away on 26 February. Neither side could find the breakthrough and the match finished 0–0. It was the first time since May 2023 that Arsenal had failed to score in back-to-back Premier League games. The result left them 13 points behind Liverpool, with the Gunners having a game in hand.

### March

On 4 March, Arteta's men travelled to the Netherlands to face the previous season's Eredivisie champions PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League last-16 first leg. The game saw Arsenal break numerous club and competition records. Through Lewis-Skelly and Nwaneri the Gunners started a Champions League knockout match with two teenagers for the first time since March 2007 versus PSV, and Nwaneri became the second-youngest Arsenal player to make a Champions League knockout appearance. Dutchman Timber opened the scoring for the visitors in the 18th minute. Nwaneri doubled the lead on 21 minutes, becoming the third-youngest player to net a knockout stage goal in the competition. Makeshift striker Merino put the Gunners 3–0 up in the 31st minute. Noa Lang pulled one back for the hosts from the spot just before half-time. Courtesy of quickfire strikes from Ødegaard and Trossard, Arsenal reached the five-goal mark on 48 minutes, the earliest by any away side ever in a Champions League knockout game. Ødegaard added his second and the Gunners' sixth in the 73rd minute. Substitute Calafiori completed the rout on 85 minutes. This was the first time Arsenal had hit seven in the Champions League since October 2007 versus Slavia Prague. The 7–1 triumph over PSV was Arsenal's first Champions League knockout win in a decade, and their first win on Dutch soil for 17 years. In fact, it was the Gunners' biggest away win in the competition, while they became the first team in Champions League history to score seven or more goals away from home in a knockout game. Arsenal also became the first side to have six different scorers (excluding own goals) in an away knockout match in the competition. The result meant that they had won five consecutive Champions League games in a single edition of the competition for the first time since 2005–06.
Arsenal faced 14th-placed Manchester United away on 9 March. The Gunners went behind on the stroke of half-time when Bruno Fernandes curled a 25-yard free-kick past a badly positioned Raya in goal. It was later revealed by broadcaster Sky Sports that referee Anthony Taylor marched the Arsenal defensive line 11.2 yards back, further than the minimum 10 yards required in the IFAB Laws of the Game, before Fernandes played the ball over the Arsenal wall inside the near post. In the second half, Rice scored an equaliser and then made a last-ditch tackle to deny Rasmus Højlund, before Raya's double save in the final seconds kept the match level. The 1–1 draw meant that Arsenal were 15 points behind leaders Liverpool with a game in hand. The result also marked Arteta's 200th Premier League match in charge. The Spaniard had won 118 times in his first 200 top-flight games as Gunners boss, eight more wins than Arsène Wenger had achieved at the same milestone (110).
Arsenal hosted PSV Eindhoven in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 on 12 March. With his side leading 7–1 from the first leg, Arteta took the opportunity to name a much-changed XI which included Zinchenko in midfield and Tierney on the left wing. Goals from Zinchenko and Rice put the Gunners ahead on two occasions but the visitors levelled up twice, and the game ended 2–2. After completing a 9–3 aggregate win over PSV, Arsenal booked their place in the Champions League quarter-finals. This was the first time since 2010 that they had clinched successive last-eight appearances in the competition.
Ahead of the last international break of the season, the Gunners hosted 4th-placed Chelsea on 16 March. Merino netted the only goal of the game with a header from Ødegaard's corner, helping his side end a three-game winless run in the Premier League. The 1–0 win left 2nd-placed Arsenal 12 points behind Liverpool.
Fourteen Arsenal players (excluding loaned out players) were named in their respective countries' senior squads for international fixtures in March: Trossard (Belgium), Gabriel Magalhães (Brazil), Lewis-Skelly and Rice (England), Saliba (France), Partey (Ghana), Calafiori (Italy), Timber (Netherlands), Ødegaard (as Norway's captain), Kiwior (Poland), Tierney (Scotland), Merino and Raya (Spain), and Zinchenko (Ukraine). This was the first time for Lewis-Skelly to be called up to the England senior team.

A white zig-zag graphic runs down the arms and flanks of the torso. White shorts were used in some away games when there was a colour clash with the home team's kit. The kit was launched with an accompanying video named From Africa to Arsenal and back again 🌍.
* Third: The new third kit was revealed on 12 August. The shirt has an aqua blue coloured base with a lilac purple fade along the front. The collar and shoulder also contain navy blue stripes.

David Raya became the first goalkeeper in the award's history to be nominated for two separate saves in the same month when he did so in August 2024.

It prevented Arsenal from going 1–0 down at Villa Park after 54 minutes of a match they ultimately went on to win 2–0. It also made Arsenal the most awarded club at the time of Raya's win, adding to Ramsdale's two awards to bring the club's total up to three awards.
