Arteta reveals why he is excited about continuing to work at Arsenal

Mikel Arteta has extended his contract at Arsenal for another three seasons, and the Spaniard has shared what keeps him excited about working at the Emirates.

Arteta is now considered one of the best managers in England, thanks to the remarkable transformation he has overseen at Arsenal.

Before his arrival, the club was stuck in a cycle of mediocrity, but he gradually instilled a winning culture and reshaped the team.

Under his leadership, Arsenal has emerged as the second-best team in the Premier League over the past two seasons, and everyone at the club has been eager for him to renew his contract.

After signing the extension, Arteta was asked what excites him most about working at Arsenal.

He told the club media:

“The people and the ambition of the club. I feel extremely lucky to work every single day with the good people that we have in the organisation. I start with my coaching staff, they are relentless in supporting me, challenging me, inspiring me, giving me ideas, and making me a better coach and a better person every single day.”

Just Arsenal Opinion

It feels great to have Arteta on our side for a few more seasons, and we expect his team to win multiple trophies sooner rather than later.

  1. I imagine that if reports of his improved salary (£15m a year has been mentioned in one) is true then he’ll be pretty pleased, and quite rightly, about that as well. A salary that size would put him comfortably ahead of every other coach in the EPL with the exception of Pep (who else?).

    Whatever he’s getting under the new deal, it’s delivery time now though, isn’t it. Arteta arrived back in 2019 and with the exception of that very early F A Cup win, the trophy cabinet remains undisturbed. The achievements of the last two seasons are clear but they’ve really made winning the EPL in 2024-25 the clear, almost natural, progression for Arteta/Arsenal. Unfortunately, not winning it can’t be seen as progress no matter how much the coach is paid, can it?

    1. Arteta is only behind Pep last 2 seasons in the EPL, so it’s fair for Arteta to be behind Pep only in terms of his Salary. You can’t win the league without getting closer first, can you? Leicester is one example but in how many decades does that happen? Now it’s all about getting it over the line and finding a way to dominate in the cup games as well. And I say it’s about time.

      1. I agree, but there’s a clear difference between Pep and Arteta on salaries here. Pep has earned his huge salary (a reported £20m a year now) by results, lots of trophies, consistently since arriving at City. Arteta has secured his salary (if the reported £15m sum is correct) on expectation.

        The problem Arteta has now which I alluded to in the earlier post is that having got “closer” in the EPL as you say over two years, there’s no option left but to win it, and preferably win it in 2024-25. Should that not happen for any reason, very possibly out of his control – injuries etc. – then justifying such a big payout becomes increasingly difficult. That’s not an issue for Pep (until now, anyway – hopefully that may change).
