William Saliba makes a decision on whether to stay at Arsenal amid Atletico interest

Arsenal completed the signing of William Saliba for £30million in the 2019 summer transfer window from Saint-Ettienne but they however loaned him back there for one season so that he gets experience. Saliba was this season loaned to Marseille and he has been impressive there hence earning him interest in various clubs including LA Liga’s Atletico Madrid.

William Saliba has been an Arsenal player for three years now but he is yet to play a professional game for them as the club has seen that him racking up more experience in the French Ligue one was better for his development. An exclusive report by TEAMtalk has revealed that William Saliba has made a decision to stay at Arsenal and fight for his place in the starting eleven instead of opting for a move elsewhere to clubs that are interested like Atletico Madrid.

William Saliba’s decision to stay at Arsenal will be a delight to the management of the club because this will allow them to not be forced into the transfer market to search for a new centre back since its expected that one of their current one might leave to give chance to new blood. Saliba will return to the Arsenal squad at the end of this season and so the young French star will look to impress in the pre-season matches.
