Arsenal are real competitors to sign the Real Madrid striker Rodrygo this summer, Talksport understands.
The Gunners will return to the market for a new winger to finally win the title of Premier League next season.

The team of Mikel Areta must be strengthened after their third season in a row, in which the crown, this time, was missed to Liverpool.
After Rodrygo was unsettled in Bernabeu and Zweigtschnell compared to Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr., sources have informed interlocutors that a move to Arsenal is a way this summer.
The Alex Crook from Talksport was accompanied by the Spanish ESPN correspondent Sam Marsden on Friday.
“I received a message at the beginning of this week in which I keep an eye on Arsenal and Rodrygo,” said Crook.
“Is there a suggestion in Spain that you could redeem him this summer for him?”
Marsden replied: “Yes, more than a suggestion. I think that Real Madrid has to make a big decision this summer.
“Rodrygo seems to be the one who is pushed to the door, I think one of Rodrygo or possibly even Vinicius jr. has to go.
“Because you have it [Kylian] Mbappe, you have Vinicius jr, they all want the same space. I don’t know how much Xabi Alonso will have a saying in things.
“Rodrygo has made it clear that he wants to play on the left, he plays on the right at Real Madrid, so he is the most obvious to go.
“But Vinicius Jr. could be a bigger money spinner and actually fix their problems a little more because they got this status problem between Vinicius jr, mbappe, somehow, [Jude] Bellingham also in the shade.

“Maybe Xabi Alonso can get it up, but it didn’t work anymore this season.”
Rodrygo has won three Laliga and two Champions League titles with Madrid since the signing in 2019, scored 68 goals and assisted 50.
Although he played a large part of his career on the right wing, the 24-year-old can also play on the opposite side.
The 24-year-old, who deserves 33 hats with Brazil, has a contract in Bernabeu that runs until 2028.
Madrid’s price is not yet known, but it could take a big change for you to sell this summer.
Arsenal already seems to have a signing via the line in front of the transmission window, since Martin Zubimendi is supposed to join.

Talksport understands that the real Sociedad midfielder has agreed the conditions for a long-term deal with the Gunners.
Zubimendi has a publication clause of 50 million pounds and has informed Sociedad of his intention of moving to the Emirates Stadium.
Arsenal is also a favorite to sign the sporty striker Viktor Gyokeres, who scores 52 goals this season in all competitions.
The Gunners legend Gilberto Silva came to talk to discuss the upcoming transfer window of his former club.
“I think one of the most difficult things nowadays find out who the striker will be who fits the system,” said the Brazilian.
“Because it is not about finding just a good player. You know what it is. According to which lute providers you have to find out, which strikers, which midfielder, which wing player, whatever.
“I think that’s a difficult task. But if you choose this guy … I think he has to think in the head of this player that, listening, these boys are better than me, I just have to make sure that I deliver.
“Because the expectation on the other side is massive and to support the guy. Because this is a team performance at the end of the day.”
