Arsenal will offer Mikel Arteta a new contract before the end of the season to ward off any interest Manchester City might have in the Spaniard eventually replacing Pep Guardiola, according to the Daily Mail.
Guardiola’s contract at City runs until the end of the 2022/23 season and the club may be looking to secure the services of Arteta who worked with Guardiola before moving to coach the Gunners.
Arteta’s Arsenal are sixth in the Premier League, but have two games in hand on fourth-placed West Ham, who are only two points above the Gunners.
