According to football Espana, Real Madrid is currently in contract negotiations with their Brazilian striker, aiming to extend his stay beyond the current contract, which lasts until 2028.
The Spanish giants have been keen on getting service in 2030, reflecting their long-term commitment to their players.
Despite the club’s intentions, the players expressed concern about his role in the team, especially after not showing up in the last month of the season.
He is seeking clear information from newly appointed manager Xabi Alonso to understand his position and future contribution to the team.
This uncertainty has attracted the attention of top Premier League clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester City.

Arsenal in particular showed a strong interest, and the report indicated that they had taken initial steps to secure the player’s signature.
However, Real Madrid set a 80 million euro valuation for the striker, which could be a major obstacle for potential suitors.
Despite their recent strengthening of their offensive options, Paris Saint-Germain is also monitoring the situation.
The player’s decision is likely to depend on the discussion with Alonso and the assurance of his role in the team.

If he chooses to seek opportunities elsewhere, it could spark a competitive bidding war between European elite clubs.

The Gunners are also reportedly getting closer to signing sports forward Viktor Gyokeres, who have attracted interest from some of the world’s largest clubs this summer.
