BREAKING NEWS: Arsenal Complete Three Secret Deals as Stan Kroenke Releases £200M — Five Outgoings Confirmed
Arsenal have quietly wrapped up three secret deals and confirmed five outgoing transfers, as club owner Stan Kroenke injects another massive £200 million to help Mikel Arteta build what many now call the strongest squad in world football.
According to trusted sources including BBC Sport, Ben Jacobs, and Fabrizio Romano, Arsenal’s summer business went far beyond the public eye — with several unannounced contract renewals and new signings completed behind the scenes.
💰 Hidden Arsenal Deals Finally Revealed
Arsenal’s headline signings this summer included Martin Zubimendi, Eberechi Eze, Noni Madueke, and Viktor Gyökeres — but the club also worked hard to secure the futures of key players already in North London.
Sporting director Andrea Berta oversaw a series of renewals that solidify Arsenal’s core:
-
William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhães extended their contracts.
-
Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri, two promising academy graduates, also signed fresh terms.
-
Leandro Trossard received a pay rise through a restructured contract, ensuring his long-term commitment to the club.
However, one major deal remained unannounced — until now.
🧤 David Raya’s Secret New Contract Confirmed
Reports from BBC Sport revealed that goalkeeper David Raya quietly signed a new contract earlier in the summer, including a significant salary increase. The deal keeps Raya at Arsenal until 2028, with an option to extend for another year through the 2028/29 season.
The Spanish international now earns more than his previous £100,000-a-week wages — a well-deserved reward for his outstanding performances and consistency between the posts.
Journalist Ben Jacobs confirmed the story on X (formerly Twitter), writing:
“David Raya has been rewarded with improved terms at Arsenal, as reported by @SamiMokbel_BBC. The pay rise was agreed over the summer.”
Fabrizio Romano also backed the report, officially confirming Raya’s new deal through his own post.
⚽ Next in Line: Jurrien Timber and Bukayo Saka
With several core players tied down, Arsenal’s attention now turns to Jurrien Timber and Bukayo Saka — two stars seen as key to the club’s future success.
Speaking on YouTube, Fabrizio Romano revealed:
“Arsenal are working on a new deal for Jurrien Timber. The club is very happy with him and wants to reward him with a better salary. After Saliba, Arsenal are now focused on extending both Timber and Saka.”
Romano added that discussions are ongoing and that there’s a “very good chance” Timber’s contract extension will be finalized soon.
Meanwhile, Bukayo Saka — already one of the Premier League’s brightest talents — is reportedly close to a record-breaking new deal. According to TBR Football, Saka is set to become the first Arsenal player to earn £300,000 per week, making him the highest-paid player in the club’s history.
That figure would surpass Kai Havertz’s £280,000 weekly wage, reflecting Saka’s growing influence and market value as one of the most important players in Mikel Arteta’s project.
🏆 Arsenal’s Vision: Building the Strongest Squad in World Football
With Stan Kroenke’s fresh £200M investment and Andrea Berta’s behind-the-scenes work, Arsenal are not just aiming to win the Premier League — they’re building a dynasty.
From locking down elite players like Saliba, Gabriel, and Raya, to nurturing rising stars such as Nwaneri and Lewis-Skelly, the Gunners’ strategy is clear: create a squad capable of dominating English and European football for years to come.
As Arsenal fans eagerly await official announcements, one thing is certain — the Gunners’ revolution under Arteta is only just getting started. 🔴⚪
