Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has revealed that the club are "working on" new deals for duo Bukayo Saka and William Saliba. The pair have impressed so far this season, though there have been concerns surrounding their long-term future at the Emirates as their contracts dwindle.
Saliba and Saka and fellow star Gabriel Martinelli have under two years remaining on their deals at Arsenal, with them set to expire in 2024. Should they see out that contract, they would then become free agents, and the Gunners would have to look at replacing them with no transfer income for either.
Discussing their contract negotiations in his pre-match press conference for Bodo/Glimt, the manager said: "We have to plan for the future. We are all working on it, obviously, Edu and all the board is on top of it, and we will try to do things in the right way, being fair and trying to plan the best possible way to reward the players that, in our opinion, have a big future for the club. When we have something to announce, we will do that."
