Saliba’s extension with Arsenal causes mind-boggling excitement and an explosive reaction!

Exceedingly enthralling reports on Saturday affirm that the Gunners’ top-notch central defender, William Saliba, appears poised to proliferate his contract with the Arsenal until the year 2027. The erstwhile Marseille player comprehensively served as a paramount part of Arteta’s Arsenal this season until a back injury abruptly adjourned his action in the latter half of the season.

As per the prevailing scenario where the contracts of Bukayo Saka, Gabriel, Gabriel Martinelli, and Aaron Ramsdale have already been rejuvenated, the subsequent talent to continue with Arsenal seems to be William Saliba. The Frenchman would have been out of contract in 2024 and thus unrestricted to leave the club next summer. However, Arsenal has strenuously endeavored to fasten him until 2027, furtively colluding with two parties, as reported by ‘The Athletic’.

Saliba landed in London in 2019 but, ultimatumly spent three seasons on loan at Saint-Etienne, Nice, and eventually Olympique Marseille, before becoming an indispensable face in Mik Arteta’s starting XI this year. He proved pivotal in supporting his side to clinch second place in the Premier League this season by playing 33 games until an excruciating back injury incapacitated him in March.

Saliba was fascinatingly garnering intense interest from a plethora of Premier League clubs that prompted Arsenal to present the 22-year-old with an instantaneous contract extension until 2027, three more years than his ongoing deal.
