Arsenal are pushing forward with a contract extension for defender Zak Swanson.

The right back is currently on loan at MVV Maastricht for the entire season.

He has a contract with the Gunners that runs until the summer of 2022.

Per Football Insider, Arsenal will trigger a two year extension on that deal.

It would take him to 2024.

That may be welcome news for the 20-year-old, as he has struggled in Holland this season, and his loan may even be terminated early.

The club will hope to find him another move, perhaps to a Premier League or Championship club, in January.
