Arsenal begin negotiations to sign Rodrygo

Arsenal want Rodrygo's service in the summer of 2025.

After three consecutive seasons of finishing second in the Premier League, the Gunners are determined to strengthen their squad to break through in the new season. According to Sky Sports , Arsenal are seriously considering recruiting the 24-year-old Brazilian player.

Although the deal was considered difficult due to many factors, the London club began to hold behind-the-scenes negotiations to find a way to complete Rodrygo's signature.

At the same time, the Brazilian striker was looking for a chance to leave due to dissatisfaction with his playing time. Marca said Rodrygo felt unfairly unable to compete for a regular place in the squad with Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham and Kylian Mbappe, leading to internal rifts.

Manager Mikel Arteta could give Rodrygo a central role at the Emirates. He would compete with Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli. Arsenal need a sharp striker to improve their scoring rate, especially after missing many important chances last season.

Rodrygo has scored six goals in 30 La Liga games this season, while Martinelli and Trossard have eight each in the Premier League. In addition to Rodrygo, Arsenal are also targeting a new striker, with Viktor Gyokeres (Sporting Lisbon) and Benjamin Sesko (RB Leipzig) also being targeted.

With this personnel reinforcement plan, Arsenal hopes to have a stronger squad to compete for titles and improve performance next season.
