# Arsenal: Gunners set to offer Bukayo Saka new contract

**According to transfer insider [Dean Jones](https://twitter.com/DeanJonesSoccer?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor), [Arsenal](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/arsenal-fc-news/) are set for a ‘big win’ by offering Bukayo Saka a new contract at the Emirates.**

### The Lowdown: Looking to the future

The winger only has [two](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-arsenal/vertragsende/verein/11/vertragsendeJahr/2024) years remaining on his deal with Mikel Arteta’s side, but despite being the previous subject of [interest](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-10890221/Manchester-City-step-Arsenals-Bukayo-Saka.html) from [Premier League](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league-news/) rivals Manchester City and Liverpool, has [hinted](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/19660555/arsenal-bukayo-saka-new-contract-hint/) that he is happy to start talks over a new contract.

The Gunners are said to value the 20-year-old at [£100m](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/19660555/arsenal-bukayo-saka-new-contract-hint/) after becoming an integral member of the first-team, and now appear to be ready to secure his long-term future following a fresh update.

### The Latest: Saka set for fresh terms

Speaking to [GiveMeSport](https://www.givemesport.com/88055275-arsenal-exciting-news-soon-over-104m-star-at-the-emirates), Jones insisted that Saka will put pen to paper on a new deal at Arsenal which would make up for the quiet end to the transfer window. He said:

“There’s undoubtedly some disappointment that Arsenal haven’t got another forward after going for Raphinha earlier in the window.

“Arsenal hope they can cheer everyone up soon though with a new contract for Saka, which would be a big win.”

### The Verdict: Boost for Arteta

Being able to tie Saka down to fresh terms would be a massive coup for Arteta, who will know just how important the academy graduate is when it comes to his long-term plans.

The [18](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/bukayo-saka/nationalmannschaft/spieler/433177)-cap international has had a rapid start to the new season despite not finding his shooting boots, racking up [two](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/bukayo-saka/leistungsdaten/spieler/433177) assists in the opening five top-flight games, and has already made 54 goal contributions in just 136 senior appearances ([Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/bukayo-saka/leistungsdatenverein/spieler/433177)).

The Gunners are currently top of the Premier League table having so far maintained a 100 per cent record, and Saka will be hoping that his personal run of form can help his side continue this impressive string of results.
