Premier League giants decide to go ‘all-in’ for Real Madrid megastar – report | OneFootball

While Vinicius Jr. and Real Madrid continue to be at economic odds over the terms of a renewal, the club’s demand and insistence on a take-it-or-leave-it offer make it clear that bridges are slowly but surely breaking.

All efforts will be taken towards preserving the cordial relations the two parties have enjoyed over the years, but it will require one or both to compromise on their stance. 

Meanwhile, Arsenal have stolen the opportunity and entered as a powerful force looking to swoop the player away. They are willing to alter their salary structure to accommodate Vinicius, and have been growing as an option in recent days.

Going all in

Now, as confirmed by Rodra on ESPN (h/t The Madrid Zone), Arsenal have decided to go all-in for the Brazilian winger and have placed him as a top and dream target.

It is not just Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta and sporting director Andrea Berta who want the player in London.

Rather, the owners of the club are now directly involved and see the magnitude of the opportunity that has presented itself to them. The interest is now directly from the owners.

Arsenal will, thus, do everything in their power to sign Vinicius this summer and are going 100% all in. There is no more room for any hesitation or dilemma.

Economic green light received

As reported last night, the ownership group of Arsenal FC have officially given the green light to fund the massive transfer, thereby permitting the administration to proceed with going for the kill.

Given that the player has less than a year left on his contract, the move can be pulled off for a sum lower than Vinicius’ massive market value, but it is expected to be well above the €100 million mark in any case. Even that sum would be a bargain for a player of his calibre.

The bigger economic investment for Arsenal, however, will be the player’s salary and signing-on bonus.

Vinicius will undoubtedly push for higher wages than he is earning in Madrid with some reports claiming he wants to double it. Further, he and his agents will command a significant signing bonus.
