Arsenal have secured Bukayo Saka on a new long-term contract, making the 24 -year -old one of the club’s top earners.

The England international has been a central figure for the Gunners since breaking through from the Hale End academy in 2018. Despite a three-month layoff last season due to a hamstring injury, Saka still managed 12 goals and 13 assists in 37 appearances, and he finished 2023-24 as the club’s top scorer with 20 goals while captaining the side for the first time.

This season, he continues to impress with seven goals and six assists in 27 games, helping Arsenal chase silverware as they lead the Premier League and remain unbeaten in the Champions League group stage.

The new deal follows a series of long-term contracts for other key players, including William Saliba, Gabriel Magalhaes, Ethan Nwaneri, and Myles Lewis-Skelly, as Arsenal aim to keep their core squad intact for the title push.
