The future of Brazilian forward Vinicius Junior at Real Madrid has been thrown into doubt, with the club reportedly open to a possible departure during the upcoming summer transfer window.
According to Idman.Biz, citing Defensacentral, the Madrid giants are considering the option of selling the player, while Arsenal have been mentioned as one of the potential destinations for Vinicius. The London club are said to be closely monitoring the situation.
The report adds that if Real Madrid decide to part ways with Vinicius Junior, they are planning to strengthen their attacking flank by targeting Arsenal winger Gabriel Martinelli. Los Blancos are ready to consider both a direct transfer for the Brazilian and a possible swap deal that could include Vinicius Junior.
This season, 24-year-old Martinelli has made 24 appearances across all competitions, scoring nine goals and providing one assist. Meanwhile, 25-year-old Vinicius Junior has featured in 27 matches, registering six goals and eight assists.
