Arsenal reportedly plan to discuss William Saliba's long-term future at the club in the next few weeks.

Arsenal are reportedly set to sit down with William Saliba and discuss the centre-back's future with the club in the coming weeks.

The 20-year-old is still waiting for his first appearance for the Gunners' first team, being shipped out on loan to Saint-Etienne, Nice and Marseille since 2019.

Saliba has starred in the heart of the Marseille defence this season, making 40 appearances in all competitions as Jorge Sampaoli's side push for a return to the Champions League.

Saliba is due to return to Arsenal in the summer, and Goal claims that the defender is set for talks with the North London club over his long-term future at the Emirates Stadium.

The report adds that Saliba is still viewed as an essential part of Arsenal's plans moving forward, but the youngster's representatives are keen to have some clarity over the situation.

Saliba was handed his first call-up to the France national team on Monday after Bayern Munich's Benjamin Pavard withdrew due to COVID-19.
