'I want to win big things HERE!' - William Saliba commits future to Arsenal despite lack of contract talks and Real Madrid speculation

LaLiga

Real Madrid

Athletic Club

Premier League

Arsenal

Crystal Palace

<p>The French defender has established himself as one of the key pillars in Mikel Arteta's backline in the last three years. His consistent performances for Arsenal have helped him attract interest from top clubs in Europe, <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/william-saliba-real-madrid-jamie-carragher-warns-gunners-fans-same-fate-liverpool/blt790c270c982ba406" target="_blank">including Real Madrid</a>. Saliba's current deal at Emirates Stadium expires in the summer of 2027, and the Gunners have yet to initiate contract extension talks with the centre back.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Ahead of Arsenal's Champions League fixture against PSV on Wednesday, Saliba was quizzed on his long-term future and whether the club have initiated renewal talks, to which he said: "Not yet, because there is some years (left), so there is no rush at the minute. I’m happy here, that’s it. I want to win big things with Arsenal. If you leave this club without winning anything, the fans will forget about you. I want to win big things here."</p>

WHAT WILLIAM SALIBA SAID

<p>The 23-year-old added: "I want to be one day the best defender in the world. I know I have to work a lot and to win trophies as well — but that’s my dream. I think I am not so far, but I am not the best at the moment because, for me, this season I have not been so good. I have to review my season, I have to work on my game. But this season, I have not been so good.</p><p>"I have to watch especially my partner, Gabriel, who has been so, so good this season. There are a few (defenders better than me), but of course, I have to focus on myself and work more."</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Arteta's men will face PSV in the second leg of their Champions League round of 16 fixture on Wednesday before meeting Chelsea in a crucial Premier League clash on March 16. </p>
