Mikel Arteta insists he won't "lie" to Arsenal players about his future
"Yes (I could stay), but it is about today and a lot of things have to happen in the next few months, as well, to earn the right, Arteta said, as quoted by the Metro. I think the manager has to earn the right to be here tomorrow. That is how you react, how you talk here, how you go in the dressing room, the message that you send, how much the players follow you."
"They do ask me but I can not lie to them. I don't know, it is something that does not depend on me. Are you really happy here? Do you feel that you have the energy and you feel you can take this club? Yes. One hundred per cent, yes. But I think it does not depend only on me."
"Few could argue that Arteta has done anything other than a brilliant job at Arsenal since he took over in 2019. Arteta's record at Arsenal Played 314 Won 188 Drawn 58 Lost 68 It's easy to forget now, but Arsenal were a mess when Arteta took over, and he's now turned them into one of the best teams in Europe. AFC keep on challenging for major titles under Arteta's management, and all that's missing now is that final step of picking up silverware, but that"
Mikel Arteta is out of contract at Arsenal in summer 2027 and has not committed beyond that date. He indicated he could remain but that his continuation depends on performance over the coming months and earning the right to stay. Arteta emphasized that he cannot lie to players when asked about his future and that his decision does not depend solely on him. Players ask about contract stability for stars such as Bukayo Saka. Arteta's record since 2019 reads 314 games: 188 wins, 58 draws, 68 losses. Securing a trophy is presented as the missing element to cement his legacy.
