Mikel Arteta has reached an agreement on an improved new Arsenal contract, according to a BBC Sport report published on September 22 and carried by Reuters.

The Spanish manager's previous deal was due to expire at the end of the current season, while extension talks had been continuing for several months. The reports say the parties have now agreed the new terms.

The Guardian reported that the extension is expected to keep Arteta at the club until 2030. However, that length, his salary and the remaining details have not been publicly confirmed by Arsenal. Reuters said it had contacted the club for comment.

The development is therefore presented as a reported agreement, not a contract officially announced by the club. Its status may change once Arsenal or Arteta publish formal confirmation.
