Arsenal have decided to build around a young team over the last year under Mikel Arteta. Going down this route has finally begun to show progression for the north London side as the Gunners currently sit at the top of the Premier League table after six games of the new season.
Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and William Saliba are all still under the age of 22, but have proven themselves as integral members in Arteta’s starting team this season. The trio are crucial in the Spaniard’s rebuilding process.
It is for this reason that the Gunners are reportedly looking to the three players down to contracts and have set a deadline in achieving this. With the January window just months away it is important that Arsenal’s youngsters remain assets to fend off interest from rival clubs.
