Arsenal are eager to tie down Mikel Arteta to a new contract, with his current one only having a year left.
Arteta once again fell short of winning the Premier League but his work is garnering attention.
He's been linked with replacing Xavi at Barcelona as well as Pep Guardiola at Manchester City.
However, according to reliable reporter Dean Jones, the Gunners are not perplexed about the situation at all.
Arteta is reportedly up for a significant pay rise to ink new terms before the new season begins.
The report also adds that Arteta is 'so deeply engrossed' in his Arsenal project that he's barely paid attention to links to other jobs.
Thus, the club are confident he will sign new terms once they open contract negotiations formally.
