Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta was linked with a move away from the North London club in recent months before signing a new deal.
According to a report by Charles Watts on Caught Offside, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta never really considered a move away from the North London club despite interest from Barcelona and Paris Saint-Germain. The Spaniard has recently signed a new contract with the club, and he will look to guide them to trophies in the coming seasons.
Arteta has done an impressive job at Arsenal so far, and they have been pushing for the league title in the last two seasons. They are now regulars in the UEFA Champions League as well. It will be interesting to see if Arsenal can win a trophy this season and do well in the European competition.
The Spaniard is regarded as one of the finest young managers in the game right now, and it is no surprise that Barcelona and PSG were keen on him. It remains to be seen whether they decide to return for him in the near future.
Arsenal must keep Mikel Arteta at the club for the long run
Arsenal will be hoping to keep him at the club for as long as possible. Their project is still very much in its infancy, and they will not want to lose a quality manager like Arteta anytime soon. The Gunners will be delighted that Arteta is fully committed to the project, and he never really considered leaving the club despite links with top clubs.
Arsenal are one of the biggest clubs in the world, and they are expected to win trophies regularly. Arteta has certainly put together a formidable squad, and the Gunners have impressed with their style of play as well.
The North Londoners have made an impressive start to the Premier League campaign, and they picked up a morale boosting victory in the North London Derby recently. They will be hoping to push Manchester City to the league title this season as well, and it remains to be seen whether the Spanish manager can guide them to the domestic crown this season.
Arsenal must do everything in their power to hold on to Mikel Arteta for the long run if they want to fulfil their ambition of winning trophies and getting back to the top of English football once again.
