Saliba has been regarded as one of the best centre-backs in the world after leading Arsenal to two brilliant, albeit unsuccessful, Premier League campaigns. The Frenchman has been linked with a move to Real Madrid as the 15-time Champions League winners suffer from long-term injuries in defense. However, Saliba has now committed to staying with the Gunners for a “ long period”.
While speaking to the media recently, Saliba said: “ Yes, of course, I feel at home. I signed for the club five years ago, but this is only my third season and I enjoy everything – the players, the staff and the fans. » When asked if he could stay at Arsenal for a long time, he replied: “I feel at home, so sure, why not? »
Saliba, it won’t move
Arsenal are looking to challenge for the Premier League title for the third year in a row, and while this time Manchester City may not edge them out, Liverpool probably will. Arne Slot’s juggernaut are seven points clear of Arsenal, but Saliba believes his side can mount a comeback.
He said: “ Everything is possible, the season is very long and we have experienced it over the last two years. We just have to focus on ourselves, it’s only December so there’s still a lot that can happen. » The French defender scored in Arsenal’s last match against Manchester United, a goal which notably allowed the Gunners to win 2-0. He will be back in action against Fulham on Sunday December 8.
