The Gunners recorded the only 100 percent record in the division during the month, with Arteta beating competition from Eddie Howe, David Moyes, Régis Le Bris and Fabian Hürzeler.
This marks Arteta’s first time winning the award since February 2024 and the eighth of his tenure, which began in December 2019. Arsenal secured victories against Chelsea, Brighton & Hove Albion and Everton to maintain their perfect run throughout March.
A 2-1 win over Chelsea opened the month, before a narrow 1-0 victory away to Brighton followed, sealed by a goal from Bukayo Saka.
The standout moment came in the closing stages against Everton, when substitutes Viktor Gyökeres and Max Dowman scored late goals to secure a dramatic 2-0 triumph.
Those results helped Arsenal move nine points clear of Manchester City FC in second place, strengthening their push for a first league title in more than two decades.
