Mikel Arteta's men are currently leading the charts with an impressive 27 points, winning nine of their last 10 EPL fixtures.

The Emirates Stadium-based outfit are enjoying a four-point advantage over second-placed Man City, who stumbled in their recent clash with Liverpool at Anfield.

With Arsenal fans hopeful of ending their 18-year wait to win the Premier League title, a section of them is not sitting pretty.

This is after Canadian-American rapper Drake was spotted wearing an Arsenal jersey, sparking talk of an impending curse.

According to The Sun, while Drake is understood to be a huge sports fan, he has often been associated with bad luck - so much so that numerous athletes and teams who associated with the rapper saw their sporting fortunes quickly plummet.

One warned:

“Bro needs to stop wearing our shirt. Going to give us more curses.”

A second lamented:

“He’s trying to stop us from winning the league with the Drake Curse.”

Another declared:

“He needs to take it off.”

A fourth begged:

“Keep him far away from this club.”

A fifth claimed:

“He’s trying hard to get Arsenal to fall off.”
