Arsenal’s set-piece coach Nicolas Jover has signed a new contract until 2027 that includes financial rewards for every goal the team scores from dead-ball scenarios.
Arsenal set-piece coach Nicolas Jover has secured a unique contract featuring bonuses for goals scored from dead-ball situations.
Following independent negotiations in 2025, the 44-year-old’s deal now runs until 2027, matching manager Mikel Arteta’s terms.
Jover’s tactical expertise has made the Gunners the league’s most lethal side from corners, scoring twice in Sunday’s victory over Chelsea to reach 16 corner goals this season.
The North London club has now equaled the all-time Premier League record for corner goals in a single campaign.
Arteta, who brought Jover from Manchester City in 2021, previously praised him “as a person and the relationship that we have.”
With nine match-winning goals coming from corners this term, Jover’s specialized role has become a cornerstone of Arsenal’s push for the league title.
