http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/21078962 By David Ornstein Theo Walcott has signed a new three-and-a-half-year contract with Arsenal, worth ￡100,000 a week. The 23-year-old England forward, who is in the final six months of his current deal, rejected a five-year offer worth ￡75,000 a week in August. Talks stalled after Walcott turned down Arsenal's summer proposal but progress was made in the last two weeks. Walcott - who has recently been used as a striker - has scored 14 goals in 24 games this season. Arsenal lawyers and the player's advisors spent all of Thursday in negotiations before agreeing on most issues by 19:00 GMT. The club had tabled a five-year contract worth a reported ￡90,000-a-week with a signing-on bonus worth around ￡3m. Walcott favoured a three-and-a-half year deal and common ground was found on that, and also on the complex area of image rights. Walcott's deal includes a signing-on bonus in the region of ￡3m. The Southampton academy graduate was upset with manager Arsene Wenger's decision to use him mainly as a substitute earlier in the season, but Walcott has since regained a regular starting place. This will bring an end to another protracted contract saga involving the Gunners, but this time they are keeping their player. Last summer Arsenal lost Robin van Persie to Manchester United as he entered the last year of his deal, and in 2011 they sold Samir Nasri to Manchester City when he was in the same situation. Mathieu Flamini was in an identical position to Walcott in 2008, and he chose to see out his final six months before joining AC Milan. Arsenal also saw Cesc Fabregas move to Barcelona following lengthy speculation, although the Spaniard had longer left on his contract. But Walcott has instead committed his future to the team who signed him from Southampton as a 16-year-old in 2006. Arsenal rebuffed a bid for him from Manchester City towards the end of the summer 2012 transfer window, while Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester United had also expressed an interest. -- http://tinyurl.com/ag7pe29 官網 Arsenal Football Club is delighted to announce that Theo Walcott has signed a new long-term contract. The 23-year-old forward has already made 244 first team appearances since joining Arsenal from Southampton in January 2006, during which time he has scored 56 goals. Walcott has also established himself as a regular England international during his time with Arsenal. Having signed for the Club at the age of 16 from Southampton, Theo soon won a call-up to England’s 2006 World Cup squad. Later that year, he became the country’s youngest-ever full international at 17 years and 75 days when he faced Hungary. Walcott currently has 30 international caps. The lightning-fast forward is enjoying another good season and is currently Arsenal’s leading goalscorer with 14 goals in all competitions. This tally includes two hat tricks - at Reading in the 7-5 Capital One Cup victory and also against Newcastle United in the 7-3 Premier League victory at Emirates Stadium. Manager Arsène Wenger said: “We are all delighted that Theo has signed a new contract. He joined us as a 16-year-old and since then has developed very well to become an extremely important player for both Arsenal Football Club and England. "Theo is a strong player and also a great person, and the combination of his ability and pace always make him such a valuable asset either from the flanks or down the middle. Theo’s contract extension now gives us a strong nucleus of ambitious young players who have committed to the Club and want to be successful with us as a group.” Theo said: "I am very happy to have signed a new contract here at Arsenal. Thanks to everyone for their continued support, especially the manager, everyone at the club and most importantly the fans. I have made it clear from the start that I wanted to stay at Arsenal so I am pleased we have agreed a deal that everyone is happy with. What’s important now is for the team to realise its potential and win trophies.” Everyone at Arsenal Football Club is looking forward to Theo's continued contribution for the Gunners in the forthcoming years. -- "Sometimes there is nothing better in life than being a Gooner." - Kevin Campbell -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 61.59.189.125
