Vinicius Junior put pen to paper on a six-year contract with Real Madrid last week (Picture: Reuters) Vinicius Junior’s team reportedly reached out to Arsenal to explain why the forward had decided to stay on at Real Madrid last week, even thanking the Gunners for the treatment they had received during their back-and-forth. Eyebrows were raised as the 26-year-old attacker emerged as a surprise target for Arsenal this summer, with talks over a contract extension previously breaking down after two separate pushes by Madrid. Mikel Arteta was believed to be ‘absolutely smitten’ with the idea of coaxing Vinicius to north London and Arsenal bosses had been prepared to make the 2024 Ballon d’Or runner-up the highest-paid player in Premier League history. But a major breakthrough in negotiations between Madrid and Vinicius a week ago convinced the Brazilian to stay put and commit his future to Los Blancos, bringing Arsenal’s pursuit to an abrupt halt.

It was subsequently announced that Vinicius Junior had put pen to paper on a six-year contract at Madrid, tying him to the La Liga giants until June 2032. According to The Athletic, Vinicius had been ‘genuinely attracted’ by Arsenal’s proposal, a move that had been approved at all levels within the Premier League champions’ hierarchy. It’s claimed the ambitious offer was made to Vinicius’ camp after ‘months of behind-the-scenes work’ and ‘high-level’ dialogue between head coach Arteta and key decision makers at Arsenal.

Just hours later, the superstar winger had wiped his Instagram page in preparation for a new chapter at the Bernabeu and official confirmation of his renewal followed soon after. The report states that Arsenal first began to get serious about Vinicius over the winter, ‘speaking at length’ with the Brazil international and his entourage to outline the project he would be spearheading under Arteta. Continued ‘frosty’ relations between Vinicius and Madrid gave Arsenal increasing confidence that a deal had been possible – and the Gunners were optimistic of pulling off a sensational coup right up until last week. Vinicius was desperate to get his future resolved after returning from the World Cup (Picture: Getty) Vinicius’ inner circle are said to have confirmed the player’s contract agreement to Arsenal last Wednesday, with representatives expressing their gratitude for how the north London giants had handled themselves during their pursuit. The report adds that Vinicius’ camp stressed that the decision was reached due to Vinicius ‘affection’ for Madrid and the significant ‘financial effort’ that had been made to keep him in the Spanish capital. While there was understandable ‘disappointment’ at the Emirates, Arsenal bosses were also ‘accepting’ of Vinicius’ decision, aware that such a move was always going to come with the strong possibility of failure. The Athletic claim that many at Arsenal saw it as an indicator of progression that they had even been in with a shot of capturing one of the most high-profile players in the world game. Forced to consider alternatives, Arsenal have been tentatively linked with Paris Saint-Germain’s Bradley Barcola and Juventus’ Kenan Yildiz in recent days. The Gunners moved to replace Leandro Trossard with the addition of Club Brugge winger Christos Tzolis last month, before Bruno Guimaraes joined in a £75million deal from Newcastle to reinforce Arteta’s title-winning midfield.

Former Sunderland striker Marco Gabbiadini strongly supports the club's endeavours to "keep hold of their key players" ahead of the 2026-27 season, after Regis le Bris highlighted the need to be "really precise" in the transfer window.

This time around, chairman Mark Ashton says Ipswich have to be "a bit braver" in their approach to the Premier League, and the type of players the club are pursuing reflects that increased ambition.

The Tractor Boys have been linked with a move for Paraguayan forward Julio Enciso, who played under O'Neil at Strasbourg last season and had an injury-blighted loan spell at Portman Road during the second half of 2024-25.
