The England international recently returned from an injury that kept him out for over 10 months, playing his first game in saturday's 3-0 victory over Burnley by the Gunners.
The player's current deal expires at the end of this season and the Gunners are keen to have their the 25-year old remain in their fold.
"We are starting to sit down with him," manager Arsene Wenger said.
"I think he has one and a half years to go on his contract in December and it is never an easy job with him, you know."
Since joining Arsenal as a teenager from Southampton in 2006, Walcott has scored 45 goals in 195 league appearances and has established himself as a key man for both club and country.
"Will he be at his peak in the next few years? He should be, yes," Wenger said.
"He is 25. It is the best years now so hopefully we can profit from that."
