"The France international has entered the final 20 months of his existing deal and has been linked with Real Madrid, expediting the need to initiate talks with a view to keeping him at the Emirates. Discussions have been ongoing for several months and, according to The Athletic and Fabrizio Romano, have now reached a satisfactory ending with Saliba poised to sign a deal that will see him stay in North London until 2030 with a formal announcement due in the coming days."
"He finally broke through in the Premier League in the 2022/23 campaign and has gone on to become one of the most consistent defenders in the top flight. Arsenal have had the best defensive record in the league over the past two seasons with Saliba, who made 51 appearances last term, forming a formidable partnership with Brazilian Gabriel. He is the latest player to commit his long-term future to Arsenal, alongside Gabriel, Leandro Trossard, Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly."
William Saliba has agreed a new five-year contract with Arsenal that will keep him at the club until 2030. The France international entered the final 20 months of his previous deal and attracted interest from Real Madrid, prompting renewal negotiations. Talks have progressed and are expected to conclude with a formal announcement in the coming days. Arsenal signed Saliba from Saint-Etienne in 2019 and loaned him to Nice and Marseille. He broke through in the 2022/23 Premier League season, became a consistently high-performing defender, and formed a strong partnership with Gabriel as Arsenal recorded the league's best defensive record over the past two seasons.
