Mikel Arteta’s long-term future has been thrown into question by former Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit. The Frenchman does not think the Gunners manager will stick around for long once he achieves success at the Emirates.<\/p>\n
Arteta will bring up four years as Arsenal boss in December. He hasn’t won a trophy since lifting the FA Cup in his first season in charge in 2020.<\/p>\n

If he does very well, and I have a feeling that he will do something good with Arsenal, maybe he will want to go somewhere else.<\/p>\n “It’s very rare now to see a manager stay at the same club for 20 years, especially with the new owners and shareholders who do not think in the same way at football.”<\/p>\n Arteta last signed a new contract at Arsenal in May 2022. The deal committed him to the club until the summer of 2025.<\/p>\n The Sun reported in April that Arsenal chiefs had put a delay on talks over a new deal until the summer.
