Will Arsenal sign Vinicius Jr?

[BBC] The future of Vinicius Junior and whether the Brazil forward is more likely to join Arsenal or stay at Real Madrid has been the subject of several questions sent in via our Gunners Ask Me Anything form . Straightforward question, not a straightforward answer. Before Arsenal can even think about formalising their interest in Vinicius Jr, they need the player to decide his future at the Bernabeu. The Spanish club have offered him a new contract, buttalks are at an impasse, with neither party willing to budge as it stands. Real Madrid , of course, want the player to renew. Truth be told, Vini Jr would like to stay. But given his current deal expires next summer, opening up the prospect of Real losing him for nothing, the La Liga side need a resolution this summer. If a new contract can't be agreed - that's when Arsenal come in. But the cost of the deal to bring Vini Jr to the Emirates would be one of the most expensive, if not the most expensive, transfers in British football history in terms of a fee and wages. Internally, the Gunners believe they have the financial means to complete the transfer. They are also confident the player would join. However, there are still a lot of ifs, buts and maybes to be resolved before Arsenal find themselves in a position to execute a deal they believe they can pull off.
