Gunners captain Mikel Arteta is rumoured to have signed a one year extension to his Arsenal contract taking him to June 2016 according to his agent Inaki Ibanez (source - footmercato.net & various twitter).
Spaniard Arteta joined Arsenal from Everton in 2011 for £10m and has been deployed as Arsenal's deepest midfielder in most games and has excelled in his current role due to his intelligence, reading of the game, talent to intercept play and calm ability on the ball. Last season Arteta captained Arsenal to their first trophy in almost a decade with a 3-2 win over Hull in the FA Cup.
It looks as though Arsene Wenger has got his man and secured the services of Gabriel Paulista from Villarreal. Arsenal have been in need of a centre-back for a few windows now so the manager and the fans will be relieved to have found one.
