Arsenal star Bukayo Saka reaches a full agreement in principle on a new long-term contract that binds him to the club until June 2030. The 24-year-old England international enters the final stages of negotiations, with only minor details on image rights, bonuses, and announcement timing left to finalize.
Saka’s current deal runs until 2027, but Arsenal prioritizes securing their academy graduate early. Club officials aim to complete the signing before the end of 2025. The new contract elevates Saka into Arsenal’s top salary bracket, reportedly exceeding £300,000 per week and making him one of the highest-paid players in the squad.
Mikel Arteta champions this renewal as a cornerstone of the project. Saka embodies the club’s identity as a Hale End product who breaks into the first team at 17. He now approaches 300 appearances and delivers consistent excellence on the right wing.
This season, Saka recorded six goals and ten assists across all competitions despite injury setbacks. His vision, pace, and composure under pressure prove irreplaceable. Arsenal’s title challenge relies heavily on his creativity and leadership.
The agreement contains no release clause, mirroring William Saliba’s recent extension. Arsenal sends a clear message: their best players stay committed for the long term. European giants previously monitored Saka, but he repeatedly expresses desire to win trophies in north London.
