Bukayo Saka Agrees New Five-Year Arsenal Deal Through 2031

The agreement, first reported by The Athletic, underscores Arsenal’s plan to secure their core players on long-term contracts.

Overview

  • Fresh terms are being finalised, with multiple outlets reporting agreement to 2031 and some noting a formal club announcement is not expected immediately.
  • Saka had been under contract until 2027 but has committed to stay longer as a central figure for Arsenal and for England ahead of the 2026 World Cup.
  • The Times and other reports indicate the deal is worth about £300,000 per week, which would make him one of Arsenal’s highest-paid players.
  • Rival clubs were tracking his situation, but Sky Sports reports his preference was always to remain with his boyhood side.
  • The extension continues a retention drive that has recently tied down William Saliba, Gabriel, Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly, with Saka’s 290 appearances and 77 goals highlighting his status.
