Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta and technical director Edu could soon reap the benefits of reducing the club's wage bill over the past year.
Contract renewals are a hot topic for the Gunners at the moment with many supporters hopeful of announcements confirming that William Saliba, Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli, in particular, have all committed their futures to the club as their current deals expire in June 2024.
Ideally, Arsenal must reach an agreement regarding the trio before the end of the season in order to avoid a worst-case scenario where all three enter the final year of their contracts and the club risk losing them for a cut-price fee in the summer transfer window - or for free in 2024.
