Arsenal have continued their long-term plan to become one of football’s best teams by agreeing a new deal with Mikel Arteta that will keep him at the Emirates Stadium until 2027.
Arteta is currently in the final 12 months of his deal in north London having joined the Gunners from Manchester City at the end of 2019. Now approaching five years in charge, the Spaniard is close to signing a new deal.
Arteta has agreed a three-year deal with Arsenal with both parties keen to “eliminate any uncertainty” about his future. Arteta is the latest key profile to commit his future to the club after a number of players penned new deals in the last few years.
Martin Odegaard, Ben White, Bukayo Saka and William Saliba have all signed contract extensions as signs of the club’s intent to break into the elite bracket of the game. Beyond them, there are a number of players who could be the next to commit their future and help continue Arteta’s rebuild in north London.
