Arsenal's 'Utmost Priority' Is Agreeing New Contract for Arteta, Owners Say

Kroenke said keeping Mikel Arteta is a top priority as Arsenal also studies options to renovate the Emirates and improve matchday experience.

  • Arsenal co-owner Josh Kroenke said signing manager Mikel Arteta to a new contract is an "utmost priority" ahead of Saturday's Champions League final against Paris Saint-Germain.
  • Arteta has led the Gunners to their first Premier League title in 22 years, with the manager previously stating he is "fully committed" to the club despite pausing contract talks until summer.
  • Crediting the manager with "100 per cent" of the success, Kroenke noted the club invested more than £250 million on eight new players last summer to strengthen the squad.
  • Chief executive officer Rich Garlick is currently leading discussions to renovate the Emirates Stadium, which has been the club's home for 20 years.
  • Applying insights from managing U.S. facilities like SoFi Stadium, Kroenke intends to preserve the ground's character while creating a more elegant matchday experience for supporters.
