Arsenal has announced that England’s ace Bukayo Saka has signed a new long-term contract. Despite Arsenal’s unsuccessful title push this season, Saka played a pivotal role, contributing 14 goals and 11 assists in all competitions. Having joined Arsenal at the age of eight, Saka has been a part of the team’s Premier League matches consistently over the past two seasons.
Expressing his gratitude, Saka stated in Arsenal’s social media announcement, “Dreams don’t come true overnight. It takes time. This club has been a family to me since I was eight years old. It has given me everything, and I have given everything back.”
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta expressed his satisfaction with the new deal, which reportedly ensures that Saka will remain with the club until 2027. Arteta emphasized the importance of retaining their best young talents for the team’s progress, highlighting Saka as an integral part of their current and future squad. He praised Saka not only for his exceptional talent but also for being a remarkable person who is cherished by everyone in the club.
Although Arsenal held the top position in the Premier League for a significant portion of the season, they faltered in the final stretch, allowing Manchester City to clinch their third consecutive title.
