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.

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.

Aston Villa are in talks over a move for Bayern Munich and Portugal midfielder Joao Palhinha. The 31-year-old became a target for Unai Emery after Amadou Onana suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury to his right knee while playing for Belgium at the World Cup. Bayern are willing to let him leave two years after signing him for £47.4m from Fulham.
Joaquin Seys is catching the eye of a lot of big clubs (Picture: Getty Images) Arsenal and Manchester United are among the many admirers of Club Brugge left-back Joaquin Seys and they now know how much he will cost. The 21-year-old has become a regular for his club side, already racking up 97 first team appearances in all competitions. 23 of those games have come in the Champions League, so he has been competing at the elite level, also picking up six caps for Belgium and playing at the World Cup this summer. There is little surprise that big clubs have come calling and the Red Devils and Gunners are not the only ones who have taken note. Get the latest transfer news every morning Sign up to our daily football newsletter for personalised updates on who your team is trying to sign and who won't be around next season. The Sun report that Newcastle United and Aston Villa have also been tracking his progress, while Porto and Benfica have also been touted as interested parties. The pull of Manchester United and Arsenal might give them a head start in the race for the full-back’s signature and they are both believed to have made enquiries over his availability. Club Brugge are realistic that they are unlikely to keep hold of the defender amid such heavyweight interest and have set an asking price of €35million (£30m) for him. Seys has won six caps for Belgium at just 21 years old (Picture: Getty Images) That price is not going to put off the Premier League sides, but it is yet to be seen whether any will choose to make the move. Seys has shown great promise, but stepping up to competing for clubs challenging for the Premier League title will be a huge test. Both Manchester United and Arsenal have other options at left-back, so it would be unlikely that the Belgian would be thrown straight in as first choice, but would be brought in to compete for a place in the starting XI. Seys faced the test of Lamine Yamal at the World Cup (Picture: Getty Images) Aston Villa are looking for a new left-back after Lucas Digne departed for Paris Saint-Germain in an £8.5m deal. They have Ian Maatsen in that position, but will want to replace Digne as they prepare for a return to Champions League action after winning the Europa League last season. A statement from the Villains on Digne’s exit read: ‘A consummate professional, who was highly regarded by his fellow players and staff alike, Lucas leaves Aston Villa with the very best wishes of everyone at the football club.’ Seys is under contract at Club Brugge until 2029, so they are under little pressure to sell the player who doesn’t turn 22 until March next year.
