Arsenal begin talks with Mikel Arteta over new contract

Under Mikel Arteta’s leadership, Arsenal are currently experiencing one of the brightest periods in their history, Zamin.uz reports.

The Spanish specialist has guided the Londoners not only to contend for top honors in the Premier League but also to be serious challengers in the influential Champions League. As a result, the coach’s future at the club and the matter of a new contract have become one of the most debated topics among fans and experts alike.

According to information from Goal.com, relations between the club’s management and the manager remain very strong. As noted by well-known journalist Fabrizio Romano, talks regarding a new agreement have already begun.

However, with all attention currently focused on on-field results, formalization of the deal is expected after the conclusion of the current season. The club’s leadership wishes to avoid excessive formalities with the current coaching staff and players during the ongoing campaign.

The team’s primary goal is to end a trophy drought of over twenty years by winning the Premier League and, for the first time in their history, lifting the Champions League trophy. Arteta’s current contract runs until the summer of next year.

Nevertheless, Arsenal’s management intends to properly recognize the coach’s efforts and the progress he has brought the team to a new level. According to the proposed new deal, the specialist’s salary is set to increase significantly, and he is to be shown long-term trust.

This step will once again prove that Mikel Arteta belongs not only among the strongest coaches in England but also among the elite in European football. Continued collaboration between the club and the manager is expected for many years to come.
