Eberechi Eze cannot wait to head to Wembley as an Arsenal player after the attacker helped us reach the Carabao Cup final by beating Chelsea 4-2 on aggregate.

Eze played the full 90 minutes at Emirates Stadium, as Kai Havertz netted a late winner to add to our 3-2 first-leg lead over the Blues.

We now head to Wembley on March 22 for the first domestic final of the season, something that means the world to Ebs.

He said: “Of course, this is my club and from young, it’s been the dream. So, to win with Arsenal, to achieve stuff with Arsenal, this is everything to me.

“You want to work as hard as you can, put in the type of performance that you need to put in, and for sure, I believe it will come, and I believe that we’ve got the confidence and the players to do it. We’ll keep pushing for it.”

Ebs is no stranger to a cup final at Wembley, having netted the winner in Crystal Palace’s 1-0 win over Manchester City in the FA Cup final last May. Following our 1-0 win over the Blues, he gave an insight into playing in a cup final at the home of football.

“Special, special, special,” he said. “It’s a game that you want to play in. It’s the games that you want to put these types of performances in and yeah, it’s special to be there for sure.”

We were rewarded for our hard work with Kai’s late finish, sparking incredible scenes in N5, on the pitch and in the stands.

Reflecting on the atmosphere, Ebs said: “The supporters, you could see the energy throughout the whole stadium. To feel it, it was powerful and it’s a special moment for us.

“Big performance from the team. I think we worked so hard and put in the necessary performance to get to the final. I think the whole team has worked so hard today and you could see everybody at the end was just dead. So yeah, there’s those types of games that you want to fight in.”
