Arsenal under-21 player Remy Mitchell joined the trophy celebrations at the Emirates Stadium on Tuesday night, revelling in the moment as a boyhood fan of the club.
Many will have seen the videos of a few Arsenal first-team players turning up at the Emirates in the early hours of Wednesday morning, with Bukayo Saka, Declan Rice, Eberechi Eze, and Jurrien Timber spotted on the concourse.
But earlier in the night, while the first-team squad were still celebrating at Arsenal’s London Colney training ground and the fans flocked to the Emirates Stadium for an impromptu parade, one member of the Arsenal u21s joined in with the supporters outside the ground.
Remy Mitchell shared videos on his Instagram story as he took part in the celebrations, as well as posting a picture of himself as a young child in an Arsenal shirt outside Highbury.
Mitchell is primarily an Arsenal academy player, making a handful of appearances for the u21s this season and often training with the first team.
The goalkeeper first joined the club in 2012, departing in 2022 before re-signing again last summer.
But the 22-year-old is also a lifelong fan of the club, recently revealing that his dad has been a season-ticket holder for years, and that he’s recently got a season ticket for himself.
When the chance to support his club comes around, Mitchell doesn’t pass it up. He was in the away end in Bilbao this season, at St. James’ Park, and in Madrid at the Bernabéu last year – prior to rejoining Arsenal as a player.
Away from football, the young goalkeeper is completing a Business and Football Management degree through the PFA.
Mitchell is one of many young Arsenal players who have grown up with the club, and support the team just like the rest of us do. They’ll all be enjoying the Premier League title celebrations the same as we are, and it’s nice that some of them were able to join in with the fans on Tuesday night.
