According to ESPN, Premier League giants Arsenal are monitoring Real Madrid forward Vinicius and have already assessed the financial viability of signing the Brazilian international. However, this potential transfer is still in its very early stages.
Vinicius is 26 years old and has only one year left on his current contract with Real Madrid.
Sources indicate that if Vinicius and Real Madrid cannot agree on a contract extension, Real Madrid believes Arsenal would be the most likely destination for the Brazilian winger.
Meanwhile, sources also suggest that Real Madrid's interest in young RB Leipzig winger Jan-Driessen Diomande should be viewed in conjunction with Vinicius's contract situation. If Vinicius ultimately fails to renew his contract with Real Madrid, and a suitable opportunity arises in the market, Arsenal will consider bringing in the Brazilian star.
Vinicius is currently in the final 12 months of his existing contract with Real Madrid.
During the 2026 World Cup, Vinicius made 5 appearances for Brazil, scoring 4 goals, but was unable to prevent the team from being eliminated by Norway in the Round of 16.
