insider's latest transfer news roundup is headlined by a new contract push for Vinicius Jr at Real Madrid, a completed move for Bruno Guimaraes to Arsenal and Real Madrid's imminent announcement of Yan Diomande.
Vinicius Jr is now close to staying at Real Madrid after a face-to-face meeting in Madrid involving the player, his representatives from Roc Nation and the club's board. Romano says the agreement is nearing completion, with Real Madrid making an improved offer that includes a guaranteed net salary above €22 million per year and a long-term deal. The club is looking for a final answer from Vinicius in the coming hours. Joao Mourinho has also been involved in the process and has pushed for Vinicius to remain in Madrid.
Real Madrid are also preparing to unveil Yan Diomande. According to Romano, RB Leipzig are expected to give the player permission to travel, complete his medical and sign for the club in the next few hours. The official announcement could arrive tonight or tomorrow, with all key details already agreed between the two clubs.
Arsenal, meanwhile, have wrapped up their move for Bruno Guimaraes. The midfielder has been given the green light to travel and undergo his medical as a new Arsenal player. Romano states the deal is done, put at £75 million, and only the formal announcement remains.
There is less progress on Manchester United's search for a striker. Romano explains that despite recent reports, there is nothing close or advanced at this stage.
The roundup also includes Tottenham youngster Mickey Moore, who is one step away from joining Koln on loan. The clubs are waiting for final approval for the player to travel, complete his medical and sign a straight loan deal.
