Vinicius Jr. is set to return to Real Madrid training next week, and as his return to the Spanish capital nears, the rumours around his uncertain future grow.

As matters stand, he has two clear options – compromise and agree to the club’s financial terms to stay with a renewal, or chase the finances he dreams of and push for an exit to Arsenal, who are the only major European giants who can afford the move.
The player is reportedly keen on staying and is even open to compromise of some degree. However, the two parties are still far from reaching any form of agreement and Arsenal are looking to capitalise on the same.
Arteta loves Vinicius
As reported by Mario Cortegana in a recent update, the Gunners’ manager Mikel Arteta ‘loves’ Vinicius and would be delighted to have him in his plans for next season. The club, as a whole, are crazy about signing the player.

The management have approved the signing and the budget required to bring the Brazilian star to England and are prepared to go all in for his acquisition.
Arsenal have reportedly been working for months to try and convince the player that a change in scenery is the best move for his career, especially after Kylian Mbappe’s arrival at Real Madrid.
They have even conversed with the player’s representatives and explained the project to them with Vinicius having a leading role under Arteta.
Key negotiations this week
Now that the player is back in Madrid, developments are expected to unfold much faster than they have so far, and he will first meet with Jose Mourinho.

After talks between the player and the coach, Los Blancos will try to convince the forward to sign a new contract at the club, and all the aforementioned developments are expected to progress in a matter of days.
Real Madrid, for their part, will not improve their offer. Their hope for a renewal rests on the idea that the player will compromise, and there is some growing optimism that an agreement can be reached.
The coming days will be key, and Vinicius must make a decision soon given that the club will not hand him much prominence if he chooses to stay without renewing.
