According to multiple reports on August 1, 2026, Arsenal have agreed personal terms in principle with Real Madrid winger Vinicius Junior. The Brazilian international is said to be open to a move to the Premier League, though no transfer fee has been agreed between the clubs.
Vinicius Junior, 26, has been a key player for Real Madrid since joining from Flamengo in 2018. He has won multiple La Liga and Champions League titles with the Spanish club. However, recent contract negotiations have stalled, leading to speculation about his future.
Arsenal are reportedly willing to make Vinicius one of their highest-paid players. The club is looking to strengthen their attack ahead of the 2026-27 season. However, Real Madrid are expected to demand a significant fee, potentially exceeding €100 million.
Neither club has officially commented on the reports. The transfer window remains open until the end of August, and negotiations could continue in the coming weeks.
