Arsenal contracts: When all 22 deals expire as two players enter final year
Arsenal enjoyed a strong summer transfer window and without breaking the bank. The Gunners racked up a spending bill of more than £100million but that figure would eventually sit below £25million thanks to a number of sales, including Aaron Ramsdale and Eddie Nketiah.

The Gunners also managed to land Chelsea man Raheem Sterling on a season-long loan deal to add much-needed competition out wide.
With key players kept, Arteta will feel he has sufficiently strengthened his ranks with only the striker position an arguable question mark, especially with Gabriel Jesus having picked up an injury last week. The Gunners also managed to offload every fringe player apart from Kieran Tierney, who was not going to be able to pass a medical with his current hamstring issue. Arteta ultimately decided to keep Jakub Kiwior despite reports of him being transfer listed earlier in the window.
With the window now closed, Arsenal can fully concentrate on the task at hand - their Premier League title bid. Meanwhile, Edu will be working behind the scenes to tie up any contract issues the club have. Most key stars are tied down to long-term deals, but there are a couple out of contract next summer and a couple more in need of new deals ahead of the summer of 2026. Here we round up all of the expiry dates for the current Arsenal first team contracts.
