Arteta's life changed.

According to the Daily Mail, Mikel Arteta is set to be rewarded with an attractive new contract by Arsenal after helping the team end a 22-year wait for the Premier League title.

Arteta is set to become the highest-paid manager in the Premier League, second only to Simeone.

Arsenal were crowned champions of the Premier League after Manchester City were held to a 1-1 draw by Bournemouth in the penultimate round. This is considered the biggest achievement of Arteta's reign since he took over the team at the end of 2019.

Arteta's current contract runs until next summer, but Arsenal's management has been negotiating an extension for months. The new deal is reportedly close to finalizing and will include a very high salary.

Arteta currently earns around £10 million per year, not including performance bonuses such as Champions League qualification. However, after this season's historic league title, his income could approach that of the world's highest-paid managers.

Diego Simeone leads with around £26 million per year at Atletico Madrid, while Pep Guardiola earns £20 million at Man City. Notably, after Guardiola leaves Etihad, Arteta will become the highest-paid manager in the Premier League.

Along with retaining their head coach, Arsenal are also preparing a squad upgrade plan to defend their title. Arteta's top target is young striker Eli Junior Kroupi of Bournemouth.

The 19-year-old striker impressed in his first Premier League season, scoring 13 goals, including a strike against Man City that helped Arsenal win the title. Bournemouth are demanding around £80 million if they have to part ways with this gem this summer.

With ample financial resources after winning the Premier League, Arsenal are ready to spend heavily to bring in another big star.
