William Saliba's agent, Niang Djibril, has teased that a contract extension could closer than first thought after snapping a picture outside the Emirates Stadium. The 21-year-old faces an increasingly uncertain future at Arsenal with his deal set to expire at the end of next season.
With Paris-Saint Germain keeping tabs on Saliba's development, football.london understands that talks are progressing well over an extension. Mikel Arteta is eager to tie the France international down to a long-term contract as the defender continues to prove integral in the Gunners' title challenge.
Saliba will be eligible to open pre-contract talks in January with clubs outside of the Premier League, if by then he and Arsenal have not reached an agreement over a new deal. So, with the Gunners in a race against time, Djibril's post of him at the Emirates Stadium has sent supporters into a frenzy on social media.
