One of the discoveries of the "Premier" league season, William Saliba, will stay in the "Arsenal" team a little longer.
"The Athletic" journalist David Ornstein reported that the London "Gunners" took the opportunity to extend the current French contract for another year - until 2024.
The 21-year-old center-back was with France at the World Cup, where he played for 27 minutes, and his national team lost to Argentina in the final after 11 penalty shootouts.
However, in the "Premier" league, W. Saliba is doing much better.
The young Frenchman is a reliable pillar of the "Arsenal" defense. He has also managed to score 2 goals and make 1 assist in 15 matches so far.
The London club will continue to seek a long-term contract with W. Saliba - negotiations have already begun.
