Arsenal fans react to Xhaka contract talks

Out of nowhere! Arsenal handing a contract extension to Granit Xhaka could not have been guessed by anyone.

But the Gunners came out with a different trick altogether from their hat, at the time when the club were being linked to Bruno Guimarães, Manuel Locatelli and Ruben Neves.

If Xhaka ends up signing that piece of paper, it will be intriguing to see what actually happens with his future in a few years’ time.

Jack Grealish penned a new deal with Aston Villa last September for five years, but Manchester City have lodged a bid for the Englishman after just one year.

Thus, it won’t be perplexing if Xhaka ends up leaving the Emirates Stadium next summer. And that too for a higher fee as the clubs across Europe will start generating money from matchday tickets.

Regardless, here’s how Arsenal supporters reacted to the news of Granit Xhaka’s likely contract extension:

Oh blimey! God bless those news outlets that reported that Arsenal and Roma have already agreed on the fee and Xhaka’s move to Italy is imminent.

The Gunners might be playing mind games with their Italian counterparts to force them to pay the asking price. But who knows what’s happening behind the scenes.

Things will get a lot clearer in the next few days, or even weeks, given it’s Arsenal.

There was only one writer who stuck his head out and said that Granit Xhaka would not be sold this summer – Step forward Admin Pat!
