Several players deserve their flowers for helping Arsenal end their 22-year wait for league title glory, and none more so than Rice, whose monstrous midfield performances made a huge difference. 

Rice has arguably become one of Europe's best midfielders since moving to the Emirates from West Ham for £105m in 2023, and former teammate Bowen has honoured that claim in a voice note released by TNT Sports.

“Dec, it’s Jaz (Jarrod Bowen). Just wanted to say congratulations on winning the league, mate," he said.

"It’s such a good achievement, and to say you’re a Premier League winner has got a lovely ring to it, and you deserve every bit of success. Enjoy this moment, to sharing the pitch with you, sharing a changing room with you, now you going on and being spoken about as the best midfielder in the world is something I’ve seen first-hand.”

While there was elation for Rice on the final day, Bowen suffered heartbreak after West Ham were relegated from the Premier League, and the Hammers captain is set to resolve his future very soon.
