## Arteta extends Arsenal stay
Mikel Arteta has agreed an improved new contract with Premier League champions Arsenal. His current deal expires at the end of this season, but negotiations have been ongoing for months.
## Deal takes him to year 10
The new contract will extend Arteta's stay for at least 10 years following his arrival in December 2019. His salary increases from 10 million pounds per year to include a sharp pay rise plus additional bonuses.
## Arteta wanted to stay
Arteta said last week that fans did not need to worry because he wanted to remain at the club. He expressed being extremely happy and grateful to work with the people at Arsenal.

## Building a dynasty
Winning Arsenal's first Premier League title in 20 years last season is viewed as just the start. Coming within a penalty kick of winning their first Champions League trophy motivated Arteta to continue building.
## Foundation stays in place
With Arteta's deal agreed, the foundation of Arsenal's recent revitalisation into a footballing force remains intact. The manager is committed to finding out what more history the club can achieve.
## Key takeaway

Arteta is committing his future to Arsenal with a new long-term deal that keeps him at the club for at least 10 more years, signaling his ambition to build sustained success.
