William Saliba has further solidified his chances to break into Mikel Arteta’s squad next season with statistics that make him the perfect centre-back for Arsenal. This builds on reports suggesting the Gunners are willing to offer him a new contract.
It was announced earlier this week that the French defender has received a call-up to the senior French national team for the first time in his career. The 20-year-old was called in as a replacement for Benjamin Pavard who suffered from an injury.
Saliba has been called up to World Cup holders’ squad due to his excellent loan stint at Marseille. This has been proved by his marvellous statistics which make him one of the best defenders in Ligue 1 this season.
