BREAKING: Arsenal make Bukayo Saka best-paid player at club with record new deal

Saka has signed a new five-year contract with Arsenal until 2031

Sources told BBC Sport Saka will become Gunners best-paid player on £300,000+ a week

Talks regarding a new contract have been in progress for almost 12 months, with Saka already announced his decision to commit his future to the club last month - with the player and his representatives now finally putting pen to paper. 

Saka's existing deal was set to expire next year - with his new deal allowing the 24-year-old to play his peak in red and white. 

The news comes as a huge boost for Mikel Arteta's side with a huge month coming up, including the League Cup final, the Champions League Round of 16, as well as crucial Premier League games at Wolves and Spurs this week.
