Remember that MailOnline said there had been a wild rumor in Spain that he might quit at the end of the season.

According to Sport, a newspaper located in Catalonia, Arteta has informed people close to him that he may leave his position early.

Arsenal-affiliated sources have categorically refuted any veracity in the Catalan press stories. According to them, Arteta was determined to oversee the Gunners.

This summer, Barcelona will be searching for a new manager to take Xavi’s place. Additionally, they are closely associated with Sport, who assert that Joan Laporta is an avid Arteta fan.

With a contract that expires in 2025, Arteta is committed. And when the season gets closer to its conclusion, the Gunners will be fighting for both the Premier League and the Champions League titles.

Additionally, last season, the Spaniard led Arsenal to an incredible Premier League title push. That guaranteed their Champions League comeback.

Shortly after Barcelona’s 5-3 loss to Villarreal, Xavi declared his intention to leave the team.

“Before you ask me the pertinent questions, I want to announce that as of June 30, I will not continue as Barca coach,” he said in a post-match speech.
