2) His reported salary is
CΒ£65k/wk. His reported loan fee was Β£1m according to the Telegraph ( https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2020/01/31/arsenal-complete-loan-signing-southampton-defender-cedric-soares/) Hardly breaking the bank.

Renew the contract already going by the 2 yr rule of sell or renew.
