William Saliba has agreed a new long-term contract at Arsenal. The 24-year-old centre-back has been a mainstay of Mikel Arteta’s team since the 2022-23 season and his decision to extend is a huge boost, not least as he has been a target for Real Madrid.
Saliba’s existing terms run until June 2027 and getting him to re-sign has been a priority for the club’s sporting director, Andrea Berta, and the rest of the hierarchy. Arsenal are primed to confirm the deal, which has been months in the making.
