<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">The 20-year-current old&#8217;s contract will keep him with the Gunners until 2023, with a one-year extension option.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Saka only signed the contract in 2020, but Arsenal wants to re-sign him and has already begun informal negotiations with his representatives.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Their initial offer will quadruple the England international&#8217;s income, which is now one of the lowest in the squad at £30,000 per week.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">However, Arsenal are willing to offer him a long-term £125,000-a-week contract, putting him in the club&#8217;s upper echelon of wages and reflecting his stature within the group.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">In 28 Premier League outings this season, the teenager has nine goals and five assists.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 14pt;">Last Saturday, he scored the game-winning goal as Mikel Arteta&#8217;s men defeated Aston Villa 1-0 to take a three-point lead in fourth place.</span></p>
