Arsenal intends to present Bukayo Saka with a "super contract," turning the English talent into one of the club’s top earners ever.
Arsenal is set to offer Bukayo Saka a blockbuster deal, elevating the English winger to one of the highest earners at Emirates Stadium. Currently, Saka has less than two years left on his existing contract, and the Gunners’ management aims to secure this key player with a long-term commitment soon.
According to Mirror, after successfully persuading William Saliba to sign a new contract until 2030, Arsenal has shifted its focus to retaining Saka. The club is confident that the 2001-born star will agree to a new deal within the coming weeks. This move is crucial to ensuring long-term stability in Mikel Arteta’s squad.
This past summer, Arsenal invested heavily in the transfer market with major signings like Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi. However, sporting director Andrea Berta has emphasized that the club’s top priority remains extending contracts of current key players. In recent months, the Gunners have secured Gabriel, Ethan Nwaneri, and Myles Lewis-Skelly. Now, their next target is Bukayo Saka, who is regarded as the new symbol of Emirates Stadium.
Saka, a product of Arsenal’s youth academy, has become an indispensable star under Arteta. With his pace, creativity, and consistency, he has established himself both in the Premier League and the England national team. Retaining the 23-year-old is not only important professionally but also demonstrates Arsenal’s long-term ambition to build a title-contending squad.
Following a crucial victory last weekend, Arsenal will now focus on the Champions League, hosting Olympiacos at home in the early hours of October 2nd (Vietnam time). Shortly after, the Gunners return to Premier League action against West Ham on October 4th at Emirates.
With the “super contract” being prepared for Saka, Arsenal shows they are not only heavily investing in new talent but also determined to maintain their current core to pursue major goals this season.
