The next step for William Saliba, after he verbally agreed to sign a new four-year contract at the Emirates Stadium, has already been revealed.
football.london understands Saliba has verbally agreed a new four-year contract to stay at the club until 2027 after lengthy discussions with the Gunners. Arsenal have already extended the deals of Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli and Aaron Ramsdale. Supporters were eager for an update on the France international who enters the final 12 months on his current contract this summer after an extension was triggered by the club earlier in the year.
Talks are set to begin with captain Martin Odegaard this summer as Mikel Arteta looks to tie down the core of his squad to long-term deals and protect Arsenal's future. News of Saliba's agreement will be music to the ears of the Gunners boss, who has already stated his desire to keep hold of the central defender.
