Bukayo Saka Commits Future to Arsenal With New Five-Year Deal

Bukayo Saka has agreed a new five-year contract with Arsenal that will make him one of the highest-paid players in the club’s history. The England forward’s new deal is set to run until 2031 and is expected to raise his salary to around £300,000 a week, reflecting his status as a central figure in Mikel Arteta’s side. Saka, a Hale End academy graduate, had previously said he wanted to win trophies with Arsenal and was in no rush to negotiate, but sporting director Andrea Berta prioritised securing his long-term future. The agreement follows recent contract extensions for key players including Gabriel Magalhães and William Saliba. Saka has played a vital role in Arsenal’s six-point lead at the top of the Premier League and has had his workload carefully managed after a minor hamstring injury. The club are also considering improved terms for Declan Rice, while monitoring potential summer moves for defenders such as Marc Guéhi.
