Arsenal defender William Saliba has reportedly informed Marseille of his desire to remain with the club despite being backed for a prominent role with the Gunners next season.
The Frenchman joined the French side on a season-long loan at the start of the campaign and has certainly impressed at Orange Velodrome. He has accumulated 51 appearances in all throughout the season and ahead of the final league game of the season, has appeared in all but one of the side’s Ligue 1 matches this season.
Saliba’s form has certainly been a key reason behind Marseille’s push for a Champions League place, as well as having reached the Europa Conference League semi-finals. His displays have also seen him backed to play a prominent role at Arsenal next season upon his return to the Emirates Stadium.
