Arsenal’s Bukayo Saka, who has been with the club since the age of seven, is reportedly set to sign a long-term contract that will increase his earnings fourfold, making him the highest paid player in the team.
According to the British Mirror, Saka’s current contract with Arsenal ends in the summer of 2024, but he is ready to extend it until 2028.
Currently earning a weekly salary of £70,000, Saka’s new contract could see his wages skyrocket to £300,000, surpassing Gabriel Jesus’ weekly salary of £250,000 and becoming the highest-paid player in Arsenal. However, the deal will not break the record set by former Gunners player Mesut Ozil, whose £350,000 contract remains the most expensive in the club’s history.
Despite not breaking the record, Saka’s new contract extension is still a significant milestone in his career and a testament to his talent and loyalty to Arsenal.
The young English international has been a valuable asset to the team and a fan favorite, and fans will undoubtedly be thrilled to see him continue to play for the club for years to come.
