Former Tottenham star Serge Aurier delivers brutal dig at Arsenal after helping seal Nottingham Forest’s Prem survival
FORMER Spurs defender Serge Aurier taunted Arsenal after helping to end their title charge.
The Nottingham Forest star, 30, who left Tottenham in 2021, played all 90 minutes of Saturday’s 1-0 victory over the Gunners at the City Ground.
Those three points secured Forest’s Prem status — and also saw Manchester City crowned champions.
And Aurier clearly has not forgotten his ties to Arsenal’s bitter rivals Tottenham.
He mocked Mikel Arteta’s outfit on his Instagram Stories by writing: “If we are not champions. They will not be champions too.
“My Spurs family.”
Arsenal led the Premier League by eight points as recently as March.
But a poor run of form saw City clinch the title with three games to spare.
After his side’s latest poor result, Arteta admitted his side “must heal”.
The 41-year-old said: “I am incapable of thinking about it right now. We have to congratulate City.

“It has been an incredible journey for us over 10 months competing with City, being ahead of them for so long.
“We have learned huge lessons. We have transformed a lot at this club.
“We have made huge steps, but the icing on the cake is to win a championship and we fell short.”
