William Saliba gives encouraging message to Arsenal fans amid new contract talks

William
Saliba
was
signed
by
Arsenal
in
2019,
but
only
played
his
first
competitive
game
for
them
this
season.
He
was
loaned
thrice
till
2022,
while
the
final
loan
spell
at
Marseille
last
season
seems
to
have
made
the
youngster
a
perfect
product
for
Arsenal.

Saliba
has
been
one
of
the
standout
performers
for
the
Gunners
as
they
sit
at
the
top
of
the
Premier
League,
aiming
to
end
their
19-year-long
drought
to
win
the
league.

Saliba’s
current
contract
expires
in
2024,
and
there
have
been
talks
about
a
potential
renewal
of
the
contract
in
the
coming
days.

Saliba,
just
21,
already
looks
like
a
top-notch
player,
and
Arsenal
are
desperate
to
tie
him
down
to
a
new
contract.
With
Gabriel
Martinelli
already
penning
a
deal,
and
Bukayo
Saka
on
the
verge
of
signing
a
new
one,
Saliba’s
contract
renewal
will
be
a
massive
sigh
of
relief
for
the
Gunners
faithful.

And
amid
the
contract
talks,
the
Arsenal
centre-back
has
given
a
positive
message,
indicating
he
is
willing
to
stay
at
the
club
for
a
long
time.

“I
want
to
win
everything
possible
here
at
Arsenal
–
and
to
put
the
club
back
on
the
very
top.
I
want
to
win
every
title.
Since
first
time
fans
sang
my
chant,
I’m
always
happy.
I
can’t
smile
in
the
game
because
I
have
to
be
focused!
I
love
it
so
much,”
Saliba
was
quoted
by
Italian
journalist
Fabrizio
Romano.

William
Saliba:
“When
we
celebrate
some
goals,
you
can
see
that
the
team
is
so
close,
we
are
all
friends
and
we
are
so
happy
to
do
everything
together,
so
we
have
to
keep
going
like
that”

The
French
defender’s
will
to
win
all
the
titles
with
Arsenal
can
only
be
a
massive
booster
for
the
fans
and
the
club
as
a
whole.
It
is
to
be
seen
how
long
it
takes
before
the
former
Saint
Etienne
player
pens
a
new
deal
at
the
club.

Saliba
played
the
entirety
of
Arsenal’s
game
against
Aston
Villa,
where
Mikel
Arteta’s
men
came
back
twice
to
secure
a
4-2
win
at
the
Villa
Park.
Arsenal’s
next
match
is
another
trip
to
Leicester
on
Saturday
(February
25)
as
they
look
to
extend
their
lead
at
the
top.
