MIKEL ARTETA GETS A NEW CONTRACT AT THIRTYTHREE YEARS OF AGE.

The Spanish born midfielder Mikel Arteta has been given a new contract for one more year . You must remember that Arsenal are very strict when they renew contracts of footballers at Arsenal , once a player is thirty years old, Arsenal will only give them a one year new contract. The reason for this is injuries come more easily to players who are once crossed thirty years. This clearly speaks volumes of Mikel Arteta, as he is 33 years old and Arsenals captain, mind you thid new contract was given even since Mikel Arteta is still out injured.
