Real Madrid set Vinicius Jr price tag as Arsenal transfer conditions made clear

Real Madrid has set a minimum transfer fee of €160 million for Vinicius Junior amid interest from Arsenal. The Gunners are considering the move to strengthen their squad, though Real Madrid remains reluctant to sell the Brazilian star.
Why it matters
This potential transfer would break the British record, signaling a massive shift in Premier League spending power and elite player valuation.
Real Madrid reportedly want at least €160million (£137m) for Vinicius Junior amid interest from Arsenal . The Gunners are exploring a move for the winger, with Real Madrid keen not to lose the Brazil international for nothing when his contract expires next summer. The 26-year-old is seen as an option to strengthen Arsenal's left-hand side as they look to consolidate their status as Premier League champions under Mikel Arteta . The forward scored 22 goals and provided 14 assists in 53 appearances for Los Blancos last season - despite the Spanish giants enduring a fallow campaign. And with talks over a new contract at the Santiago Bernabeu having reportedly stalled, it could be an excellent opportunity for Arteta's men to acquire one of the game's leading attacking players. But Spanish newspaper SPORT claim that the Gunners will need to smash the British transfer record to sign him.
