Arsenal have tried their best to win the Premier League this season but the Mikel Arteta-led side have fallen behind Liverpool in the title race. Much of that has been due to the injury of their star player, Bukayo Saka. The Englishman has been an integral part of their attack and his extended absence this season has harmed the side a lot. It is expected that Saka will return to fitness after the international break and will play a part for Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League and the latter half of the Premier League.<\/p>\n

Arsenal Planning To Renew The Contract Of Bukayo Saka<\/strong><\/h3>\n

His contract expires in the summer of 2027 and reports from the BBC<\/a> have revealed that Arsenal have made it a priority to renew his contract at the earliest. The club considers him a very important part of their future plans and will soon start discussions with the representatives of the winger. Moreover, Saka must also be happy to be part of the Arsenal setup where he receives so much importance. So, it is unlikely that there will be many issues for the Gunners to renew his contract.<\/p>\n

\"Bukayo<\/p>\n

Bukayo Sak<\/a>a is a star on the wing. He is fast\u2014gliding past defenders effortlessly. Saka\u2019s right foot is magic, whipping in crosses or bending shots. The Arsenal kid\u2019s dribbling is tight\u2014slippery and smart. He is calm in the clutch, picking the right pass or finish. Saka works hard, tracking back with grit. His versatility shines; he can cut inside or hug the line.<\/p>\n

The Englishman is highly confident and is not fazed by big moments. Goals and assists pile up as he has always been a difference-maker. At 22, Saka\u2019s energy and skill light up games. The 22-year-old is a nightmare for full-backs.<\/p>\n

Saka has scored 5 goals in 16 matches so far in the Premier League 2024\/2025 season. Overall, his goals scored per 90 minutes are 0.35. Moreover, Bukayo Saka\u2019s total G\/A (goals + assists) is 15 for this season.<\/p>\n

Is it a good decision?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

From Arsenal\u2019s view, renewing Bukayo Saka\u2019s contract is a no-brainer. He is their heartbeat\u2014pacey, skilful, and clutch. Saka\u2019s injury this season wrecked the Gunners; without him, and they have slipped behind Liverpool. Saka\u2019s magic right foot and tireless work rate lift the whole team. At 22, he is already world-class, tearing up defences and piling up goals and assists. The Englishman is happy at the Emirates, loved by fans and Arteta. Locking him down past 2027 keeps the club\u2019s future bright. He is the cornerstone of Arsenal\u2019s title push and Champions League dreams. The Gunners can\u2019t risk losing him\u2014simple as that.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
