It’s that time of season where someone needs to sign a new deal. This time it is not Walcott but indeed Bacary Sagna. According to goal it is believed that Sagna is close to agreeing a new 3 year deal which will put him close to 100k a week.

Bacary Sagna is close to reaching an agreement with Arsenal over a new contract, Goal understands.

Sagna’s representatives have held positive fresh talks with the club and the Gunners hierarchy believe they have made a breakthrough in their attempt to extend the player’s deal beyond this season

This was written by Wayne Veysey who is normally quite good when it comes to Arsenal.  Let’s hope this is true and Sagna has showed this seaon why he is still considered one of the best right backs in this country. This can be seen because teams such as Liverpool and Man City are chasing him.

This would bring the end to negotiations which have lasted 18 months and is understood that Frankfurt’s Sebastian Jung is the number one target if he was to leave.
