Arsenal has made significant strides in managing player contracts under the leadership of Edu and Mikel Arteta. Their strategic approach has been crucial in maintaining a competitive squad capable of challenging for the Premier League title. Players like Bukayo Saka, William Saliba, Ben White, and Martin Odegaard, who have played key roles in recent title challenges, have been rewarded with new deals.
However, Arsenal faces some crucial decisions as several senior players are nearing the end of their contracts. With some contracts expiring in 2025, the club needs to decide whether to extend these deals or consider selling the players in the upcoming transfer windows to avoid losing them for free.
Here are the Arsenal first-team players whose contracts are set to expire in 2025:
1. Thomas Partey
2. Jorginho
3. Raheem Sterling
4. Neto
As these players enter the final 12 months of their contracts, Arsenal must weigh their options carefully, considering both the financial and sporting implications of retaining or selling these assets. This is especially important as the club aims to sustain its competitive edge in the Premier League and beyond.
Mikel Arteta, eager to bolster Arsenal's attacking options during the summer transfer window, secured a deadline-day loan deal for Raheem Sterling from Chelsea. This acquisition follows successful transfers from Chelsea, such as Jorginho and Kai Havertz, who have become integral parts of Arteta's squad.
While Sterlings move is currently just a loan, his future beyond this season remains uncertain, as he is set to return to Chelsea. However, his situation at Chelsea appears tenuous, which could impact where he ends up after his loan at Arsenal.
Looking ahead, Arteta will likely seek to further strengthen his frontline, with Jamal Musiala emerging as a potential target. The Bayern Munich forward has consistently impressed in both the Bundesliga and the Champions League. Musiala, who began his career at Chelsea, will have just one year left on his contract at the end of the season, which could make him available for a reduced fee. His goal-scoring ability, highlighted by 20 goal involvements in 38 games last season, makes him an attractive option for Arsenal as they continue to build a squad capable of challenging for top honors.
