The news comes as a huge boost for Arsenal and one that was perhaps expected, given what Arteta is building at the Emirates.
Great change has been evident since the Spaniard took charge in 2019, with the Gunners moving from eighth-place dwindlers to challengers for the Premier League title.
The transformation has been crucial to getting Arsenal back to where they are supposed to be, with Arteta’s work and spirit embodying what has been missing since Arsene Wenger’s glory days.
It’s been a whirlwind for Arteta as manager of Arsenal, returning to North London as a coach after spending three and a half years under Pep Guardiola’s wing at Manchester City.
Being a former Arsenal player and captain, the Spaniard knows exactly what it means to play for the Gunners, an energy that is contagious in the dressing room.
From strong player relationships to building refreshed a playing style, it’s been a celebratory period for Arteta, who expressed his delight at committing his future to the club, via Arsenal’s official website.
“I feel extremely proud, very excited and am looking forward to what is coming next,” Arteta said.
