Clubs are watching Arteta, and last season he appeared on Barcelona’s radar after Xavi Hernandez announced he would be leaving. The Gunners’ coach had to deny any intention to leave the Emirates and remains a target for some of the top clubs in Europe.
While Arteta is happy in London, he could still leave next summer if he doesn’t sign a new contract.
Many fans wonder why he has not yet signed a new deal, and journalist Charles Watts has explained the reason for the delay.
He said, as quoted by Give Me Sport:
“Mikel Arteta’s contract extension is taking a little longer than expected because it is a big deal, with him approaching the highest salary for a coach in the Premier League, if not the highest.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Keeping Arteta is a no-brainer, and we believe he also wants to remain at the club, so there is no reason to panic.
