Arsene Wenger has confirmed reports from earlier this week that the club are in talks with Alex Iwobi over a new deal.
The 19 year old has been hugely impressive in recent weeks, and the way modern football works means that new terms are on offer despite him signing a contract just last October.
He’s scored in two successive Premier League games, and the Arsenal manager says the club want to ensure his future is in North London.
“We are discussing extending his contract at the moment,” he said. “He’s a real Arsenal person because he’s been here since the age of eight.
“He has three years left at the end of the season anyway but we want to keep him here for longer. If there have been some positives in the last few months, it’s how well and how quickly he’s emerged as a player with a good impact.”
