With one year remaining on his current contract, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has made a name for himself as one of the best young managers in Europe. Due to his success-driven nature, Arteta, 42, may anticipate earning the biggest salary of any manager in Arsenal’s history. Additionally, he will receive assurances from the club that they share his desire to compete at the greatest level.
Though they won’t be adding any superstars this summer, Arsenal will bolster their lineup by looking for a new striker, with Benjamin Sesko of RB Leipzig at the top of their wanted list. Everything lines up to support Arteta’s long-term plan to stay at Arsenal, and all parties are quietly confident that things can be resolved.
It is hoped that everything can be resolved during the summer and that Arteta can write before the new season begins. Arteta has already made it known that he anticipates speaking with both Edu, the sporting director, and Richard Garlick, who will become the managing director this summer, during the summer.
Although some hesitant chats have occurred, it is believed that no substantive discussions or negotiations have occurred.
However, it is anticipated that this will soon change with Arteta and Edu’s return from vacation, and there doesn’t appear to be any reason why the former captain of Arsenal would choose to abandon what he is building—even if other big teams are showing interest.
After Arteta took over at Arsenal in 2019, the team ought to believe they are in a strong position because they demonstrated faith and devotion during his leadership. He has made Arsenal the closest title rivals of Manchester City and is now a coach good enough to challenge Pep Guardiola, the man he worked under at the Etihad.
It is safe to say that Arteta can demand a decent deal to commit his future to the Emirates, given his reputation as a difficult contract negotiator during his playing career.
Arsene Wenger, the former manager of Arsenal, was reportedly paid approximately £8 million a year for his last contract, and Arteta’s earnings are frequently rumoured to be almost the same.
