Arrteta confirmed that multiple members of his coaching staff are in negotiations, telling reporters: "It is difficult because four or five people committing at the same time is not easy to do.
"I am so happy with them and I value them at the highest level. I want to continue together so hopefully it will be revolved very soon."
