Arsenal owners have confirmed plans to offer Mikel Arteta a new contract as an "utmost priority." The Kroenke family, led by co-chair Josh Kroenke, views extending Arteta as critical after he ended the club's 22-year wait for a Premier League title. Arteta's current terms expire at season's end, but the club is optimistic about securing his long-term future based on his successful transformation of the team.

Arteta has maintained a close relationship with the club's owners throughout his tenure, facing highs and lows since his 2019 appointment. Josh Kroenke highlighted how he supports Arteta during challenging moments, noting "leadership can get pretty lonely" at times. This backing has been evident as Arteta guided Arsenal to their first title in over two decades, with the chance to complete a historic double in the Champions League final.

The Kroenke family also confirmed plans to develop and expand the Emirates Stadium, leveraging their experience with SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles. Josh Kroenke mentioned CEO Richard Garlick is leading these conversations, with the goal of preserving the stadium's character while enhancing the matchday experience. This strategic investment, combined with Arteta's long-term commitment, signals the club's ambition to build sustained success.
