William Saliba has committed to Arsenal long-term, signing a new five-year contract that will keep him at the Emirates Stadium until June 2030. The 24-year-old France international's previous deal was set to expire in 2027, but he's now secured his future with the Gunners, ending speculation about potential moves to clubs like Real Madrid.



Details of Saliba's New Contract:

  • Contract Duration: Five years, until June 2030
  • Previous Contract: Set to expire in 2027
  • Reasons for Staying: Saliba cited manager Mikel Arteta and his staff as key factors in his decision, praising them as among the best in the world.


Saliba's contract extension is a significant boost for Arsenal as they aim to win major trophies. He's become an integral part of the team, known for his composure, intelligence, and physical presence, making him one of the best defenders globally. Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta expressed delight at Saliba's commitment, highlighting his growth and influence on the team.


“I feel proud of myself because I first signed in 2019, and now in 2025, I'm still here to extend my contract. I'm so happy. I feel at home. We have a good team, good squad, good staff. The coach is perfect for me, so it's the best place to be,” said Saliba.


“I enjoy every day when I have the chance to wear this shirt. I try to give everything, and now I'll give even more to this club and to the fans.”




William Saliba, a 24-year-old centre-back, was anticipated to extend his contract at Arsenal's Emirates Stadium, despite earlier rumors linking him to Real Madrid. He joined the Gunners in July 2019 from French Ligue 1 side Saint-Etienne for a reported fee of £27 million. Initially, Saliba was loaned back to Saint-Etienne for the 2019-2020 season before going on to have further loan spells in Ligue 1 at Nice and Marseille.




After several loan spells, Saliba finally broke into Mikel Arteta's starting XI during the 2022-23 season. Since then, he has become an integral part of Arsenal's side, helping the team finish second in the Premier League for three consecutive seasons. Saliba has developed a strong centre-back partnership with Brazilian Gabriel, which is arguably one of the best in the world, based on Arsenal's defensive record.


In a recent turn of events, Saliba has signed a new long-term deal with Arsenal, committing to the club until 2030. This move solidifies his position as a key player in the team, and he will continue to work with Arteta to reach new heights. With his composure, intelligence, and physical presence, Saliba is considered one of the best centre-backs in the world.


Manager Arteta said: “William is loved by all the players and staff, and that speaks volumes about his character, commitment and attitude every day.


“Since joining us, William has grown so much, embraced responsibility, and has created a strong connection with our supporters and everyone at the club.”
