Arsenal announced on Wednesday that Mikel Arteta has signed a long-term contract with the Premier League champion team. This agreement secures his position as manager at the Emirates until 2030. Previously, the Spaniard's contract was set to expire at the end of the current season.

Arteta began his work at Arsenal in December 2019 and led the team's return to the top of English football. Last season, Arsenal won its first league title in 22 years. Furthermore, he guided the team to its first UEFA Champions League final in two decades, although they lost to Paris Saint-Germain on penalties.

Currently, Arsenal is in second place in the Premier League, three points behind the leaders, Manchester City, following an unexpected 3-0 defeat to Brighton before the international break.

Kroenke also expressed pride in all the achievements since Mikel's return to the club in 2019.

The Arsenal team will return to Premier League matches on Saturday, playing at home against Leeds.
