Sources indicate that preliminary talks have begun behind the scenes, with Arsenal assessing all possibilities to secure the versatile attacker. While the transfer remains difficult, the Gunners are determined to strengthen their squad after another trophyless season.
Rodrygo is seen as a game-changer for Arsenal—his ability to receive the ball between the lines, dribble, create space, and finish off both feet has drawn comparisons to Alexis Sánchez. With Mikel Arteta’s side needing top-tier reinforcements to challenge for silverware, entering the Rodrygo conversation is seen as a logical step.
Meanwhile, Barcelona have set their sights on Liverpool winger Luis Díaz, as they look to revamp their squad ahead of the next campaign. The Colombian attacker has been a key performer at Anfield, but Barcelona’s interest suggests potential movement in the summer transfer window.
On the other hand, Chelsea remain determined to keep Enzo Fernández despite ongoing links to Real Madrid. The Blues view Fernández as a crucial part of their midfield rebuild, making a sale unlikely unless a substantial offer arrives from Los Blancos.
In addition to Rodrygo, Arsenal are closing in on the signing of Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad, with the Spanish midfielder reportedly agreeing to a long-term deal. The Gunners are also favorites to land Sporting striker Viktor Gyökeres, who has been in sensational form with 52 goals across all competitions this season.
Former Arsenal midfielder Gilberto Silva recently weighed in on the club’s transfer strategy, stressing the importance of finding players who fit Arteta’s system rather than simply acquiring big names.
As the transfer window approaches, Arsenal fans will be hoping their club can finally secure world-class talent and mount a serious challenge for silverware next season.
