Arsenal confirmed that William Saliba has signed a new five-year contract to keep him at the club until 2030.<\/p>\n
It’s a huge boost for Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta as the gunners have been tying one of Europe’s best defenders in the long run. They intrigued by Real Madrid, who was hovering when Saliba entered the final two years of his Arsenal contract with the Emirates.<\/p>\n
Real Madrid has launched a campaign to publicly bring France International to court. However, Saliba, 24, surrendered to Arsenal as the club attempted to win a major trophy under Arteta.<\/p>\n
“William is loved by all his players and staff, and it speaks volumes every day about his personality, commitment and attitude,” Arteta said. \u201cSince joining us, William has grown enormously, embraced responsibility and has built strong connections with our supporters and everyone in the club.<\/p>\n

“We know there’s still a lot to come from him and will continue to work together to continue improving with our clear ambitions to win major trophies.”<\/p>\n
Saliba has revealed in the past that he had an Arsenal shirt as a child and grew up watching gunners like Tarley Henry and hosts of their French stars. Arsenal sports director Andrea Berta has been at the heart of purges for his new contract since he took charge last summer.<\/p>\n
They were able to get Gabriel, one of the top defensive partnerships with Europe’s Saliba, to sign the deal. Arsenal also has Miles Lewis Skelly and Ethan Nuwaneri on long-term contracts, with Bukayosaka being their next target.<\/p>\n
