Throughout much of the summer, reports have suggested that William Saliba could be the next big star to join Real Madrid in the summer of 2025.
When Los Blancos come calling, few players can resist, and their interest in Saliba is a potential concern for Arsenal.
The Gunners’ defence has significantly improved since Saliba became a key player following his loan spells, and his performances have been crucial to the team’s success.
In addition to his club form, Saliba has also established himself as an important player for the French national team. However, he has now been linked with a potential move to PSG as well.
French football expert Jonathan Johnson has revealed why he could move to PSG. He told Caught Offside in an exclusive:
“We’ve seen some transfer gossip about William Saliba and it’s only natural that some of the top clubs in Europe would be interested in the Arsenal defender. PSG’s interest is nothing new – he’s Paris-born and hails from the Bondy region, like Kylian Mbappe and Randal Kolo Muani.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Saliba is a world-class defender who has been starting for his club and country, so it is not a surprise that he is on the radar of top clubs.
We need to start winning major honours. Otherwise, he will be tempted to leave the Emirates.
ADMIN COMMENT
So here are some simple rules which I must insist commenters follow….
You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans. Everyone is allowed to hold their own opinions even if you disagree with them. It COSTS NOTHING TO BE POLITE TO OTHER ARSENAL FANS.

“We need to start winning major honours. Otherwise, he will be tempted to leave the Emirates.” I think that’s right – and it probably doesn’t just apply to Saliba. Being a runner-up is an achievement certainly, but there’s no trophy and, for the EPL, no medal.
Saliba knows that while he’ll get a lot more money with the likes of PSG (and probably Real Madrid, although they’re not reckless payers), the one thing he will get with either of them is trophies, with a history of winning the biggest at RM.
While Saliba has a new contract, so Arsenal has that side covered, it can still be very de-stabilising for the player and club if he’s constantly linked to a move away. It’s also not unknown for other “approaches” to go on either.
There’s no guarantee that whatever Arsenal does he won’t want a move at some time (there are few “one club” players now), but surely that’s less likely in the near future if Arsenal starts winning things, preferably the EPL. Easier said than done of course but true I think, nevertheless.
Correct!!!
