Arsenal are linked with one Real Madrid star. The player can be made available for discount this summer. The reports add that Chelsea and Manchester United are also in the race.
Arsenal have attacking signings as the top priority this summer. Mikel Arteta has already made it clear that it will be a big window. Gunners want to sign a new striker and a winger. As for striker, they have Gyokeres and Sesko as top targets.
On the other hand, Gunners want to sign a left winger. They want an upgrade on both Martinelli and Trossard who have been under performing. But, they want the new winger to play on right when needed. Earlier, they had Nico Williams as top target. But, the Spaniard is now close to join Barcelona.
Arsenal linked with Brazilian winger
The star in question here is Rodrygo Goes of Real Madrid. He is 24 years old and is one of the best attackers in the world right now. He has played a major role for Los Blancos on both wings. Rodrygo has helped them to win multiple titles including 2 Champions League titles.
However, Rodrygo has struggled to start regularly in recent season. He has fallen down the pecking order after the arrival of Kylian Mbappe. In addition, now Arda Guler is back to full fitness whereas Los Blancos have also signed Franco Mastantuono. Hence, Rodrygo’s game time may reduce even further.
As a result, Madrid may opt to sell Rodrygo this summer. According to Caught Offside, Arsenal are showing interest in the Brazilian after missing out on Williams. The report adds that Madrid wanted €110 million for Rodrygo but are now likely to agree to sell him for €80-85 million.

Lastly, the report states that Chelsea and Man United are also keeping tabs on Rodrygo. The Blues are in need of a new left winger as they have parted ways with Jadon Sancho. But, they have Jamie Gittens as top priority. On the other hand, United are focused on striker.
