Arsenal are hoping to secure a contract extension with the talented young defender William Saliba.
The 21-year-old defender has been a key player for the Gunners this season and he has formed a quality defensive partnership alongside Gabriel Magalhaes this season.
The Gunners are currently on top of the Premier League table and they will be hoping to go all the way this season.
One of the main reasons why the Londoners have had so much success in the Premier League this season is because of their defensive organization and Saliba has been an integral player for Mikel Arteta.
The player has a contract with the Gunners until the summer of 2024 and it is no surprise that Arsenal are looking to extend his stay at the club.
According to a report from ESPN, the Premier League club have submitted a contract offer to the player but the 21-year-old has decided to turn it down because there is a significant difference between his demands and the club’s current proposal.
Apparently, the talented young Frenchman is keen on signing a new deal at Arsenal and it remains to be seen whether the Premier League outfit are prepared to offer him a lucrative proposal in the coming months. Saliba has the potential to develop into a top-class Premier League defender and the Gunners cannot afford to lose him just yet.
The fact that Saliba wants to continue at Arsenal will be encouraging for the Londoners and they will be looking to hold further talks to sort out the youngster’s future in the coming weeks.
Good arsenal transfer new
Failure to tie down Arsenal’s young players, especially Saliba, will be a bigger failure than that of having targets being hijacked lately. Reason is that everyone understands what these young players offer unlike potential recruits whom no one knows how they will adjust to the rigours of the EPL. Tying down what is in already is key to Arsenal’s ability to continue pushing on and hopefully attract even better talent.
Depends on if u believe this write up… Only another poster seeking relevance
Lock in Salba, he has good young talent.
Just want to say about Mudryck.
Whatever Chelsea has fooled him on their project, it’s all nonsense. They have no project in place that’s they’re sitting in 10th with no hope of CL with so many other teams playing at a level higher than them. With such a long term contract, you’ve put your career in stagnant danger in commitment. What a shame!
Obviously, the money meant more especially leaving Ukraine. Chelsea are not going and doing anything anytime soon, except spend money unnecessarily. And Potter will get the sack by the end of the season because of expectations not being met.
What’s funny is that he ended up at a club where he didn’t want to be. How does that work?
Anyway, upward and onwards Gunners. Let’s get this title and more. AFC forever!
