Arsenal have been urged to wrap up contract renewals for both Bukayo Saka and William Saliba before turning their attention to bringing in new signings this summer. The Gunners have been able to negotiate new deals for Gabriel Magalhaes and Gabriel Martinelli over the past few months, while a new contract for Aaron Ramsdale confirmed earlier this week.
football.london understands that the deal will keep the talented shot-stopper at the Emirates Stadium until 2026, with the club having the option to extend this by a further 12 months. Ramsdale is now considered to be a crucial figure in Mikel Arteta's squad with Arsenal keen on tying down their key players to long-term deals.
