William Saliba has revealed he has held talks about a new contract after insisting he is “so happy” at Arsenal.
Gunners defender Saliba, 21, joined Arsenal in a £30m move from St Etienne in 2019 but spent his first three seasons out on loan. Now the France international has just over 18 months on his current deal and has been in no rush to commit himself to a fresh, long-term contract.
Europe’s top clubs are already circling as the classy centre half has been exceptional for Arsenal since coming back to the Emirates this season while he has also broken into the full France team ahead of the World Cup. When asked about his contract, Saliba said: “Yeah, we will see. They talk a little bit. We will see.”
