Breaking: Next Freddie Ljungberg sign new Arsenal deal

Arsenal have handed Joe Willock a new contract.

The 20-year-old midfielder has found himself a key part of Unai Emery‘s first-team plans this season and the club’s commitment to him has been demonstrated with a fresh contract.

Willock said after putting pen to paper on new terms: “To be at this club is amazing feeling and I’ve always wanted to play for the Arsenal first team.

“Now I’m doing that, since the age of four and a half, it’s always been my dream. And to sign a new contract today is a brilliant feeling for me and my family.

“As a young boy growing up through the academy, I’ve always wanted to play at the Emirates and play in front of the fans and stuff.

“So to do it, it’s only right in my heart and my mind to know that this is the right club for me. And to carry on my own future here is brilliant.”
