Arsenal is seriously intent on signing Real Madrid forward Vinicius Junior. Head coach Mikel Arteta is personally overseeing the process. This has been reported by the Spanish outlet Diario AS.
Arteta has assured the Brazilian that he will become Arsenal's main star in the 2026/27 season. The London club aims to dominate in Europe.
According to the source, Vinicius is aware of the English club's plans. He will discuss his future with Real Madrid's hierarchy upon his return to Spain.
The player’s representatives are currently denying any agreement. However, Arsenal's interest is considered quite genuine.
The English side is prepared to pay approximately €150 million for this transfer. Ultimately, the decision rests with the forward himself.
The 26-year-old Brazilian’s contract with Real expires in a year. Further negotiations regarding an extension will determine the outcome of any potential deal.
