“It’s a privilege to commit my future to the club and to continue to work with exceptional people who want the best for Arsenal,” he said in a statement.
“This club is unique, its character and the way it makes you feel, and I have a great sense of privilege that our journey together will continue.

He joined the club in December 2019 after serving as assistant manager at Manchester City, and is currently the longest-serving head coach in the Premier League.
Co-chairs Stan and Josh Kroenke said: “It has been an incredible journey so far and we are excited for what lies ahead in this special relationship. Last season was an incredible moment in Arsenal’s history, a moment in which we created memories that will last a lifetime. We’re determined to create many more in the years ahead.
“We share a special bond with Mikel. We are so proud of everything we have achieved since he returned to the club in 2019.”
