Napoli has initiated communication with the representatives of Gabriel Jesus to discuss a potential transfer for the Arsenal forward, with preliminary talks already in progress.
Reports indicate that Napoli has begun discussions with the player’s camp as they consider the possibility of signing the Brazilian in Serie A. Jesus is now represented by the same agency as Napoli’s head coach, Massimiliano Allegri, which could play a role in the negotiations.
Despite this, Arsenal has made their stance clear, stating they will only entertain a permanent transfer for the 29-year-old. Currently, the Gunners are not open to a loan agreement, meaning Napoli must meet Arsenal’s asking price to move forward with the transaction.
This development occurs following confirmation from Softfootball that Vinícius Júnior has signed a new six-year deal with Real Madrid, which effectively concludes any rumors linking him to Arsenal.

Vinícius is likely to stay at the Santiago Bernabéu after reaching a verbal agreement with Madrid concerning a long-term renewal.
Only minor details remain before the deal receives final approval from the club, effectively putting an end to the transfer speculations surrounding his future.
