# Arsenal open contract talks with Campbell

Arsenal are reportedly set to offer promising winger Joel Campbell a new deal at the club, with ith the Costa Rica international enjoying a successful spell in the Gunners’ side so far this season.

Wayne Veysey of [*Football Insider* believes the south American](https://www.footballinsider247.com/exclusive/exclusive-arsenal-open-talks-on-60000-a-week-forward-deal) could earn up to £60,000-a-week.

It is safe to say that Campbell has capitalised on his previously rare opportunities in the Arsenal side after injuries to attacking players such as Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Theo Walcott and Alexis Sanchez have enabled the winger a chance to impress Arsene Wenger; he’s duly delivered.

In November, Campbell was questioned regarding his future at the Emirates and whether a loan deal or a move away from the club was in the offing, however, the 23-year-old reiterated his happiness at the club and has been delighted to receive the amount of opportunities he has been getting recently.

Although Campbell signed a new deal just 12 months ago that was due to take him through to the summer of 2018, Wenger has seemingly attempted to offer the Costa Rican an extended deal, [due to interest from the likes of Galatasaray](https://readarsenal.com/2016/01/06/galatasaray-officials-jet-talks-arsenal-forward/), as well as other European sides.
