🚨 Florentino Pérez on the speculation linking Vinícius Jr. with Arsenal and his contract situation at Real Madrid: 🗣️ “Vinícius is one of the pillars of this football club. He's not only one of the best players in the world today, but he's also a player we see as part of Real Madrid's future. I understand why clubs like Arsenal would admire him. Every president and every manager would love to have a player of his quality. But admiration and reality are two very different things. Our intention is very clear, we want Vinícius to stay at Real Madrid for many more years. We've presented him with a contract that reflects how important he is to this club, and we hope an agreement is reached soon. He knows what Real Madrid means, and we know what he means to Real Madrid. We've achieved great things together, and I believe the best is still to come. As president, my message to Vinícius is simple: this is your home. We want you to continue making history here, and I hope he accepts our proposal so we can move forward together.”

One thing about #Arsenal, every summer there's always that one signing nobody sees coming. No leaks, no long transfer saga... then boom, "here we go." This time, I have a feeling that surprise signing could be a centre-back.
