Patertey s contract is about to expire, his future at Arsenal is still uncertain

Arsenal midfielder Paltey's contract is about to expire at the end of this month. His future is now at a very critical "crossroads". The player’s recent statement is very realistic and professional. He said that deciding where to go in the future depends mainly on three aspects: the first is whether you are happy, the second is whether the team pursues it, and the third is economic considerations.

His words actually expressed the most realistic considerations of a professional player. But when we analyze, the key to really determining whether he will renew his contract with Arsenal is actually an external factor - that is the arrival of new player Zubimendi.

This gives head coach Arteta a multiple-choice question. Should Paltei and Zubimendi form a new "double midfielder" combination, using one person's physical confrontation and the pass control of another person to strengthen the midfield, or is it that introducing Zubimendi is to complete the "update" of the midfield and let him directly replace Padi? These two ideas will directly determine the future of Patertei. If the coach chooses the former, then there is a high possibility that Patertei will renew his contract; if he chooses the latter, he may have to find a new next home this summer.
