Arsenal defender William Saliba could have ended up in Real Madrid, but decided to extend his contract with the London club until 2028. In an interview with Foot Mercato, the French player explained why he decided to stay at Arsenal: “Of course, offers from clubs like Real Madrid could tempt. This can also provide an incentive for development, but I considered it necessary to stay at Arsenal. First I want to win trophies here, with this club, and only then think about my future,” he emphasized. It is noted that Saliba has been playing for the Gunners since the summer of 2019. During this time, the 24-year-old defender played 146 matches, scored 7 goals and made 3 assists. Arsenal will play significant games for the team without their leading player.
