Arsenal were back in training on Thursday, just two days after sealing their first Premier League title in 22 years. There was, however, no sign of 16-year-old Max Dowman, with the teenager instead sitting his GCSE exams.
Dowman became the youngest Premier League winner in history as the Gunners sealed the title on Tuesday night when second-placed Manchester City could only draw at Bournemouth.
And they are now preparing for their final game of the league season away to Crystal Palace on Sunday.
Once that is out of the way, Arsenal have a Champions League final against Paris-St Germain to get ready for on Saturday 30 May.
That will be followed the next day by a trophy parade around Islington.
It is not known which subjects Dowman is studying, but GCSES taking place this week include English language, business, economics and physical education.
Luckily for Dowman, next week is half-term – allowing him to focus only on the European Cup final.
