Arsenal have been told that they have a very realistic chance of signing Real Madrid attacker Vinicius Jr this summer.
The Gunners are looking to add to their attacking options this summer and suddenly could land one of Europe’s best forwards.
🤔 PICK ONE: Would you rather Arsenal signed Bradley Barcola or Morgan Rogers this summer?
The 25-year-old is out of contract with Madrid next summer, and negotiations over a new deal have currently reached an impasse.
Los Blancos now face a big decision over the attacker and whether they now look to sell him or persist with contract talks this summer.
Arsenal have a realistic chance of signing Vinicius Jr
Arsenal are one of five European clubs who have a realistic chance of signing Vinicius Jr this summer, according to El Debate.
Madrid are keen to renew Vinicius’ contract; however, if the winger does not agree to do so after the World Cup, José Ángel Sánchez could be tasked with selling him.
The 15-time European champions will not allow him to leave on a free transfer, and a potential sale would need to happen if an agreement cannot be found.
Vinicius is currently valued at £119 million by Transfermarkt, although they could be forced to sell him for less given his contract situation.
The Gunners have been joined by Liverpool, Manchester City, Bayern Munich, and Manchester United in the race to sign the Brazilian.
👀 How much is Leandro Trossard worth to Arsenal? Should the Gunners be selling him at all?!
Vinicius is still hoping to stay at Santiago Bernabeu as he knows the possible financial implications of leaving the Spanish giants.
The winger hopes that Florentino Perez will increase his salary offer, but at the same time, he knows how much he could earn from becoming a free agent.
He is also considering the possibility of securing a big signing bonus from a major European club before eventually leaving for Saudi Arabia in a few years.
It would be fascinating to see how the North London club would respond were they to be presented with the chance of signing the Brazilian.
