Arsenal to open contract renewal talks with Saka, Saliba and Nwaneri

Premier League heavyweights Arsenal are preparing to open contract talks with several key players as they look to secure their long-term futures ahead of the summer transfer window.

English international of Nigerian descent Bukayo Saka is a top priority, with his current deal set to run until 2027.

Manager Mikel Arteta is eager to extend the winger’s stay and ensure he remains a core part of the team for years to come. Reports suggest discussions will begin soon to tie him down to a fresh long-term contract.

Defensive duo William Saliba (who has Cameroonian lineage) and Gabriel, widely regarded as one of the Premier League’s strongest centre-back partnerships, also have contracts running until 2027.

Arsenal’s policy has traditionally been to avoid players entering the final two years of their contracts to maintain a strong negotiating stance. Given their importance to the squad, both are expected to receive significant wage increases.

Academy prospects Ethan Nwaneri (of Nigerian heritage) and Myles Lewis-Skelly are also in line for new deals.

Having signed professional contracts upon turning 17, their current agreements are limited to three years. With Lewis-Skelly recently earning an England call-up under new manager Thomas Tuchel, Arsenal are keen to extend both players’ stays.

With a Champions League quarterfinal against Real Madrid approaching and a title race still in play, securing these key players remains a crucial part of Arteta’s plans.
