ARSENAL are ready to quadruple Bukayo Saka\u2019s salary to reflect his status as one of their most important players.<\/p>\n
The 20-year-old England star currently receives a basic wage of just \u00a330,000-a-week, making him one of the lowest-paid players at the Emirates.<\/p>\n
But now the club are preparing to offer him a new weekly deal worth around \u00a3125,000 to end any speculation about a summer move.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Manager Mikel Arteta has made securing Saka\u2019s long-term future his top priority and has told the club they must keep their current Player of the Year at any price.<\/p>\n
And that will mean a massive pay rise for the brilliant young winger who is now one of the hottest properties in English football.<\/p>\n
Saka\u2019s representatives have already been notified that Arsenal are ready to sit down and thrash out a new contract the moment the current season is over.<\/p>\n

His current agreement, which was only signed 20 months ago, still has another two years to run.<\/p>\n
But Saka\u2019s meteoric progress over the past two seasons has forced the club to reassess his value and hand him a deal which will put him in line with the club\u2019s other leading stars.<\/p>\n
Saka, who will join up with Gareth Southgate\u2019s England squad this week despite suffering a cut ankle during Saturday\u2019s 1-0 win at Aston Villa, is more than happy to wait until the end of the current campaign to open talks.<\/p>\n
Like Arteta, he does not want to be distracted during the season\u2019s run-in as Arsenal look to secure a top-four finish.<\/p>\n
