Mikel Arteta provides update on Joe Willock's future amid Newcastle links

Mikel Arteta has talked about Joe Willock's future amid Newcastle United loan links. The youngster has spent the second half of the last season with the Baggies and it seems that Steve Bruce wants to resign him. However, Arteta is seemingly in no hurry to make a decision on Willock as he prepares his team for the start of the new Premier League season. Arsenal boss addressed the futures of Willock and Hector Bellerin after yesterday’s 2-1 defeat to Chelsea.

He said: “I don't know (if they are leaving). I'm going to coach them and train them, and respect and look after everybody, because they are our players.   "Hopefully, they can have their minds here, and prepare here, because they’re Arsenal players, and our job is to make them as good as we can.”
