Saka one is the closest per reports, where the agreement is done in principle and he will sign for 5 years earning around 200k / pw
Also just shows the state of our current midfield (which can dwindle with 1 injury even) - that nobody is talking about the utterly unfortunate ESR injury.
I was most worried about saliba tbh, but there was the article arsenal released that I think most people feel was a whoopsy as it was being saved for after announcing his contract back signed.
All 3 have really good negotiating positions so makes sense for them to hold out resigning to get the best possible deal (word is the club has an extension option for all 3 of their current contracts which is huge). It's hard to imagine a scenario where martinelli or saka peace out and don't resign for at least this cycle as it's just beginning really. Saliba would of been the one who I could see doing that given how rocky his time at the club started, but see above.
