It was a memorable night for Arsenal at the London Football Awards.

Aaron Ramsdale, Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard and the boss Mikel Arteta were all winners on a special night of celebrating football in the capital.

All income raised from the event goes to the Willow Foundation, a charity to provide experiences and powerful memories for seriously ill young adults around the country.

It was a night of glamour, and a night of sparkle for the red side of north London as Mikel Arteta was unquestionably named manager of the year.

Bukayo Saka and Aaron Ramsdale followed, being crowned young player of the year and goalkeeper of the year, with captain Martin Odegaard collecting the player of the year award.

Speaking to the media after picking up his award, the Norwegian dedicated his prize to his team:

“I just want to share this with the whole team. It's great to see the club being recognised with all the awards. I think it shows how far we've come as a club and what we're doing this year is very special.”

Very special is an understatement, as Arsenal sit five points clear with just eleven Premier League games remaining in what has been an almost faultless campaign so far for the Gunners.
