Arsenal have been handed a huge boost with reports that Olivier Giroud, Laurent Koscielny and Francis Coquelin are all set to extend their current deals.
French outlet RMC Sport report that Giroud has agreed a new deal that will keep him at the club until June 2019 while Coquelin has agreed a two-year extension that runs until 2021.
The duo are also set to be joined by captain Laurent Koscielny who will extend his current deal through to 2020.
Giroud has previously been linked with a move away from the club after losing his place in the side, with Alexis Sanchez moving to a central role with great success, although his agent has played down such rumours insisted he has no intention of leaving in January.
The France international has also admitted he has no doubts about his future at the club and that competition for places is not a problem for him.
Koscielny, meanwhile, has long claimed he wants to finish his career at Arsenal and fans will be delighted to hear of his extension, the defender having emerged as one of the finest centre-backs on the continent since moving to north London.

The club will be hoping that the trio committing their futures at the club is just the start with a host of other played nearing the end of their contracts.
Wenger has already admitted he is keen to offer Santi Cazorla a new contract and is also keen for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to stay at the club.
Of course the most high profile are the futures of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez with the latest update from general secretary David Miles suggesting things are “looking good”.
