Overall, it has been a good week for the Arsenal Football Club.
2 big wins, plus a new contract for Bukayo Saka, and now today, a long term contract for 19-year-old sensation Gabriel Martinelli!
Arsenal is setting up for an amazing future featuring a group of very talented footballers!
Along with Saka and Martinelli, the Gunners have an impressive group of players 25 years of age or younger, including:
Kieran Tierney, William Saliba, Calum Chambers, Emile-Smith Rowe, Reiss Nelson, Nicolas Pepe, Hector Bellerin, Matt Macey, Konstantinos Mavropanos, Rob Holding, Lucas Torreira, Joe Willock, Eddie Nkeiah, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, Zech Medley and Matt Smith. (My apologies if I missed anyone.)
Most clubs would dream to have these names on their first team rosters.
Matteo Guendouzi would also be on this list, but he is still in exile.
Any way, congrats to Bukayo and Gabriel for signing their new, long term contracts with the Gunners!
Now, let’s get Griezmann, Silva and Partey signed, too!
