Arsenal winger Bukayo Shaka has been a rising star on the green pitch and has risen rapidly in recent years to become a key figure in the attacking end of the team. The 20-year-old England player revealed that he is confident of renewing his contract with the club. The British media also revealed that Arsenal have prepared a new contract for Shaka, which is expected to at least double his salary from the current £70,000 a week to over £140,000 a week.
Facing the topic of contract renewal, Shaka was blunt: both the manager Adi Da and I are confident of reaching an agreement. I have a deep emotional bond with Arsenal, I feel the love of my teammates, the coach and the fans, so I am eager to stay here. Adi Da also gave his affirmation, believing that the new star will play for Arsenal for a long time.
Shaka scored 11 goals in the Premier League last season, but his form seems to have dipped as he was left with no goals in the first four games of this season. However, he said that he did not feel any pressure as Arsenal's overall performance is still outstanding and gaining momentum, while he has enough time to find his shooting boots.
