Arsenal are set to give manager Mikel Arteta a new contract this summer in order to secure his long-term future at the Emirates Stadium.
According to Fabrizio Romano’s post on X on Wednesday, the decision was made in March and is unaffected by the outcome of the current season.
The post read, “Arsenal are planning to offer Mikel Arteta a new contract in the summer. The plan was already decided in March regardless of the end of the season results. Arteta wants to focus on titles now but is in love with the Arsenal project and looking forward to talks. Deal on soon.”
The Arsenal administration is thought to be completely confident of Arteta’s leadership and the direction of the project he has developed since taking over in 2019.
Negotiations for a new agreement are set to commence in the coming months, with both parties willing to continue the collaboration.
While formal negotiations have not yet begun, it is widely acknowledged that stability remains a top objective for the club.
Arteta is supposedly focused on completing the season strong and fighting for major honors, but he remains committed to Arsenal’s long-term goal and is believed to be “in love with the project” he is in charge of.
