Mikel Arteta has snubbed Gary Neville 's advice and disregarded the pundits' Manchester United comparisons after committing his long-term future to Arsenal.
The Gunners confirmed on Friday that the Spaniard has signed a new deal which will see him remain at the Emirates until the summer of 2025. The 40-year-old was joined in putting pen to paper over a contract extension by Arsenal Women 's head coach Jonas Eidevall.
Arteta has overseen a remarkable resurgence in North London this season having guided the Gunners from bottom of the Premier League after three games played to the cusp of a Champions League return. The Spaniard's side currently sit fourth in the league's standings, three points adrift of Chelsea and two ahead of fierce rivals Tottenham, as they close in on a top-four Premier League finish.
