Granit Xhaka signs a new Arsenal deal until 2025, according to a report.

Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka has reportedly put pen to paper on a new four-year deal with the Gunners.

The former Borussia Monchengladbach man was widely expected to depart the Emirates this summer, although an anticipated move to Roma failed to come to fruition.

After Jose Mourinho's side refused to fork out Arsenal's asking price of £20m, attention soon turned to a new deal for Xhaka, who was due to become a free agent in 2023.

According to football.london, Xhaka has now committed his future to the Gunners until 2025 after turning his Arsenal career around following the arrival of Mikel Arteta.

The 28-year-old memorably swore and gestured to Arsenal supporters in a match against Crystal Palace in October 2019 after being jeered by the crowd, but he won Arteta's trust and played 45 times in all tournaments last season.

Xhaka boasts a total of 13 goals and 20 assists from 221 games in an Arsenal shirt, and his signing has supposedly ended the Gunners' interest in Manuel Locatelli and Ruben Neves.
