  "account": "Manager Mikel Arteta has extended his contract with Arsenal until 2030, signaling a long-term future at the Premier League champions. BBC Sport first reported on the agreement, which reportedly surpassed the £20m annual wage earned by Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone and former Manchester City manager Pep Guardiola. Arteta's current salary of £10m annually will rise to £15m, with an additional £5m in bonuses included in the new deal. The Spanish manager, who joined Arsenal in December 2019, expressed his excitement in stating that \"this club is unique, its character, and the way it makes you feel.\" He went on to say, \"and I have a great sense of privilege that our journey together will continue.\" Arteta has already won a Premier League and FA Cup with Arsenal, though they lost the Champions League final to Paris St-Germain in May. The 44-year-old emphasized that \"what is so exciting is that this is only the beginning of what we can achieve together.\"",
