Arsenal is set to initiate talks with striker Eitan Envaneri regarding a new long-term deal, according to reports from the BBC.

The forthcoming offer aims to acknowledge his position as one of the most talented young players in European football.

The 18-year-old has been a crucial part of the Gunners’ squad this season, and the club plans to reward him with enhanced terms, as his current deal is due to expire at the end of next season.

Following the appointment of Andrea Berta as sporting director, extending Envaneri’s contract has become a top priority for Arsenal.

While no formal offer has been made yet, it’s understood that the club has already reached out to Envaneri’s representatives to arrange official negotiations in the upcoming weeks.

Envaneri is likely to receive a substantial pay rise, as his current deal is the initial professional contract he signed while still part of the academy.

He has appeared in 31 matches for Arsenal this season.

His academy teammate, Miles Lewis-Skelly (18), is also nearing a new contract.

Lewis-Skelly has emerged as a pivotal player for Arsenal this season, featuring in the starting lineup for the first two matches under new England manager Thomas Tuchel—and even scored on his debut against Albania.

Both Envaneri and Lewis-Skelly are recognized as key assets for Arsenal’s future, and the club is determined to secure new contracts for both.
