According to French media footmercato, Arsenal is discussing a contract renewal with Saliba, but the players are now facing competition from many giants.

现年24岁的萨利巴已经积累了丰富的经验,在阿森纳的几个赛季里,他已成为球队后防线上的绝对主力,并且在德尚执教的法国国家队中也占据了一席之地。

本应在今年9月对阵乌克兰和冰岛的比赛中继续为国出战,但萨利巴在8月底对阵利物浦的英超比赛中受伤(0-1失利),导致他因脚踝伤势缺席了3到4周。 This will make him miss the match against Manchester City and Newcastle United, and may even miss the first round of the Champions League group stage against Athletic Bilbao.

Saliba's absence is a significant loss for coach Arteta, because he is an important pillar and defensive core of the team. The Spanish coach and club management both appreciate the French player very much.

In recent weeks, Arsenal has begun discussing the issue of renewing the contract with Saliba. His contract will expire in June 2027 and will enter the final year of his contract next summer, which is a situation Arsenal is trying hard to avoid.

It is understood that Arsenal has provided Saliba with a five-year contract extension, hoping that the two sides can cooperate for a long time. Negotiations are still in progress, but no agreement has been reached. Arsenal hopes to get a positive response, and they know that many top clubs such as Real Madrid are paying close attention to him.
