Written by Jonathan Chong on Saturday, July 4, 2009
Youths Theo Walcott, Lukasz Fabianski, Aaron Ramsey, Kieran Gibbs and Jack Wilshere have all signed new long-term contracts with the club.
Gibbs was the latest of the group to extend his stay at the North London club with the rest having already put pen to paper in the last few weeks.
Manager Arsène Wenger said of Gibbs and Wilshere: “Kieran made such a great impact last season and the progress he made throughout the year was fantastic.
"Kieran is an intelligent player with huge quality and he proved last season with his performances that he has great potential.
"We’re delighted that Kieran has committed his future to Arsenal and we’re all excited to watch his future development at the Club.
“It’s such great news that Jack has signed a new long-term contract. Jack made great progress last season, playing at Under-18s, Reserves and First Team level and we all witnessed what a great young talent he is.
"At still 17 years of age, the potential is huge for Jack and we’re all delighted that he has committed his long-term future to Arsenal Football Club.â€
