Insider Ben Jacobs sheds light on Arsenal's special approach in pursuing the talented forward from Real Madrid.
According to the journalist, the Gunners' sporting director, Andrea Berta, is renowned for his ability to engage in deep negotiations simultaneously with multiple candidates. However, when it comes to the Brazilian winger, the club has opted for a different strategy.
Speaking on the Latte Firm podcast, Ben Jacobs remarked:
“Andrea Berta is known for not just testing the waters; he pushes negotiations forward with several players much further than other sporting directors. But with Vinicius Junior, it’s different, based on what I’ve heard.”
Arsenal's approach, involving not only Berta but also the owners and the entire football hierarchy, is to present a comprehensive project directly to Vinicius. They are telling him, “If you decide on your future this week, we will wait. We won’t negotiate with anyone else; you are our number one target.”
