Premier League
The Arsenal continues to be interested in signing Rodrygo Goes, the Brazilian winger from Real Madrid, between wax and January, and they are in contact with his representatives to understand his situation. Arsenal's next target is a top-level left winger.
According to reports by Graeme Bailey on TEAMtalk and Fabrizio Romano, the Gunners' board is searching for a specialist left winger to compete for a starting spot with Christos Tzolis, facing a resounding refusal from the Spanish club to negotiate a loan during the winter transfer window.

Arsenal's roadmap and the player's recovery process
The technical secretariat of Arsenal already explored a formal agreement before the player suffered an anterior cruciate ligament rupture in March 2026. Despite the Brazilian international's time off due to injury, the Gunners' leadership maintains the tracking reports and plans to make a definitive economic proposal at the end of the current season 2026-2027.
The London-based coaching staff's plan is to incorporate a flanking profile on the left side to alternate minutes with Tzolis in the Premier League and the Champions League.
Real Madrid's stance and Mourinho's support
Real Madrid has formally informed the player's agents that they will not consider loan offers or transfers in January 2027. Coach José Mourinho's instructions are for the player to remain with the white team to complete his physical readjustment and be 100% fit for the crucial phase of the season.
The player himself has expressed his intention to stay with the Santiago Bernabéu squad at least until the summer transfer market of 2027, ruling out any move during the winter market.
Real Madrid's conditions for negotiations in the summer market
The Gunners' board is assessing the budgetary impact of completing a definitive transfer at the end of the season. The Madrid board will not set a valuation until they assess the player's performance upon his return to the field.
The English team's executives believe that the player will bring the definitive quality boost to the offensive line. Arsenal's scouts will evaluate the player's progress in his initial official minutes under José Mourinho's command during the first months of 2027.
If the Brazilian player decides to leave Real Madrid in the short term, Arsenal will make a formal offer to secure his services and have him become a key figure in Mikel Arteta's project.
