Mikel Arteta has signed a new contract to manage Arsenal until 2030, BBC Sport reports. His previous deal was due to expire at the end of this season, so the agreement extends his stay with the reigning Premier League champions. [1]

BBC Sport reported earlier in October that the club and Arteta had agreed an improved deal. It says the new contract raises his pay from a previous arrangement of £10m a year plus £5m in bonuses, but gives no figure for his new salary. [1]

Arteta took charge in December 2019. Arsenal have since won the Premier League and FA Cup, and lost the Champions League final to Paris St-Germain in May. Arteta said he felt privileged to continue at the club and called their achievements so far “only the beginning” of what they could achieve together. [1]

Arsenal chief executive Richard Garlick said Arteta’s long tenure would give the club a competitive advantage. He also said Arsenal wanted to dominate football over the next several years. [1]
