According to football.london, Arsenal are planning to extend the contract of Bukayo Saka. After coming into the Arsenal team three years ago, Hale Ender has developed into one of the club’s greatest players in recent seasons.
The 21-year-old has 14 goals and 11 assists in 46 appearances this season, adding to his 19 goal efforts last season. Saka has had a fantastic season for both club and country, including an appearance in the World Cup for England.
Saka is said to have already filmed some advertising video ahead of the transaction. He is anticipated to join Gabriel Martinelli in committing to a long-term future in north London.

“We want to keep our best talent,” Arteta told reporters. “Especially the players that deserve some recognition. I think he has been incredible since he came back from his loan period and we want to reward him, that is for sure. We will find the right moment to do that.”
“Obviously Edu and the board are on top of every negotiation regarding new contracts and now we are doing everything we possibly can to do that in the right moment at the right time” he stated. “The communication and the relationship is super. It is about timing, I think. Nothing else.”
Now, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has suggested that the new contract would be announced in the coming weeks, with Saka poised to stay at Arsenal until 2028.
