Loaned without a purchase option to OM until the end of the season, William Saliba should return to Arsenal and could even extend his contract with the English club.
Successful bet for Pablo Longoria ! In search of defensive reinforcements during the last summer transfer window, the president of OM had decided to give his confidence to William Saliba, in lack of playing time at Arsenal . And since the start of the season, the French player has performed well and has established himself as one of the bosses of the defense. But on loan without an option to buy, Saliba is expected to return to England at the end of the season. Delighted with his performance, OM intends to open negotiations soon with Arsenal to discuss a transfer, but it is unlikely that the Gunners will agree to sell him.
Saliba soon to be extended by Arsenal?
Indeed, according to information from the Mirror, William Saliba should play in the Premier League next season. The center-back is expected to return to Arsenal after his loan is over and try to find a place in Mikel Arteta ’s squad. Saliba 's move to OM is more than successful, as the English club are even considering offering him a new contract. Tied to the Gunners until 2024, Saliba could extend his lease at the end of the season. A transfer to the Marseille club therefore seems impossible, unless there is a big proposal from Pablo Longoria .
