Arsenals holding midfielder Mikel Arteta, who is the club captain, has less than a year to go on his deal with the club, and his advancing age could mean the Gunners dont renew his contract this season. The uncapped Spaniard, 32, joined Arsenal in 2011 from Everton, and has gone on to become one of the best deep-lying playmakers in the Premier League. Hes previously played for Barcelona at youth level, French Ligue One side Paris Saint-Germain, Scottish Championship outfit Glasgow Rangers and Spanish La Ligas Real Sociedad. Arteta won the 2014 FA Cup and subsequent Community Shield with the Londoners, but could be persuaded by a host of clubs in January if manager Arsene Wenger continues to delay contract talks. Hes made more than 120 appearances for Arsenal, and has been a continued regular in the side every since joining and while he's not got the pace he once had, he is still a supremely gifted footballer, and will have his suitors if he is allowed to leave on a free in the summer, probably including former club Everton.
