Arsenal’s ambitious pursuit of Vinícius Jr has received another intriguing twist after respected South American football expert Tim Vickery suggested the Brazilian’s situation at Real Madrid is being complicated by the arrival of Kylian Mbappé. Reports suggest that there remains a gap between the Real Madrid’s proposal and the demands of Vinicius Jr’s representatives. Meanwhile, several Spanish reports have claimed Arsenal remain firmly interested in the 26-year-old, while Real Madrid are said to value him at around €150 million should they eventually decide to sell. Vinícius remains one of the world’s elite forwards and Real Madrid would undoubtedly prefer to tie him down to a new long-term contract. Do you think Arsenal genuinely have a chance of signing Vinícius Jr this summer, or will Real Madrid eventually resolve both the contract situation and the tactical puzzle?
