Arsenal defender Holding signs new contract through to 2024

Arsenal defender Rob Holding has signed a new long-term contract at Arsenal.

The 25-year-old has put pen-to-paper on a three-and-a-half year deal through to the summer of 2024, with the option of a further year.

The former Bolton defender reportedly came close to leaving the club on loan over the summer but has established himself in the Gunners first team under Mikel Arteta this season.
