Arsenal are seemingly 'optimistic' about extending William Saliba, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli's respective contracts at the Emirates Stadium. The trio have become an integral part of the project in north London, but supporters have been somewhat worried about whether or not they will commit their long-term futures to the club.
The latter of those three admitted just last week that he's ready to agree a new deal, but is just waiting to finalise details with negotiators. Martinelli told reporters at Arsenal's pre-Zurich press conference: "I want to stay they just need to give me a pen."
"I am very happy at Arsenal. I said it many times, I love to be here. I love the city, I love everything about Arsenal so I want to stay. Yeah, just need to get a pen."
