Arsenal defender William Saliba has been linked with a move to Real Madrid in recent weeks, and they are prepared to tie him and Bukayo Saka down to bumper new deals.
According to GMS, Arsenal are ready to offer William Saliba and Bukayo Saka £300,000-a-week contracts. It will be interesting to see if they can convince the former to sign a new deal with the club. The 24-year-old is one of the best players in the Premier League, and he has been exceptional for Arsenal.
They simply cannot afford to lose a player of his quality if they are serious about fighting for major trophies. It is no surprise that Real Madrid are interested in signing the player. They need to find quality long-term alternatives to David Alaba and Antonio Rudiger. The French International would be an exceptional acquisition for them. He is still quite young, and he will only improve with coaching and experience.
It will be interesting to see if Real Madrid decide to test Arsenal’s resolve with an offer in the summer. However, the gunners are unlikely to let the player leave anytime soon. He’s an indispensable asset for them. Meanwhile, the reported wage offer seems quite lucrative, and it will be interesting to see if the player is ready to commit his long-term future to the club.
Saka set for bumper new deal
Similarly, Arsenal wants to keep Bukayo Saka at the club for the long term as well. They are prepared to offer the winger a £300,000 a week contract as well. They need to hold onto their best players if they want to win trophies, and the two players are certainly irreplaceable for them right now. It will be interesting to see if they can convince the two players to sign a new contract with them.
They need to hold onto their best players if they want to do well next season. They have been fighting for the league and the Champions League regularly. It is fair to assume that the two players will want to stay with them and push for major trophies, instead of leaving.
