PSG-Real Madrid War for the Signature of the New Mbappé Who Plays at Arsenal

The English footballer has caught the attention of several elite European soccer clubs

In addition to seeking the necessary assets to complete the generational change in defense, the executives led by Florentino Pérez are keeping an eye on other market opportunities. Especially considering a possible major departure from Santiago Bernabéu locker room: Vinícius Jr.

The hypothetical departure of the '7' verdeamarelo toward Saudi Arabia, one of the sagas that has trailed Real Madrid since last October, would leave a significant void. To fill that 'space' in the roster of strikers, dozens of names have emerged among which the white sports management doesn't rule out a young prospect currently in the Premier League.

The name Ethan Nwaneri is one of those that has caused the most 'commotion' in the European football elite. This young Arsenal prospect, due to his fantastic performance during the current season under the tactical guidance of Mikel Arteta, has cast doubt on his future with the gunner entity. The Basque coach wants nothing to do with rumors that would take away one of his most important game-changers this season.

Ethan Nwaneri, according to information handled by the 'JustArsenal' portal, has reportedly caught the attention of scouts from Real Madrid, PSG, and AC Milan. From the noble area of the Emirates Stadium, they know perfectly well what those advances mean, the same source points out, so they have sought to meet with the footballer to discuss his renewal.

One More Name

The expressed interest of Real Madrid, PSG, and AC Milan in Ethan Nwaneri has forced a move by Arsenal... just two weeks before the entity presided over by Florentino Pérez and the gunner footballers face off in the Champions League 24/25 quarterfinals. That tie would be a special occasion for the scouts led by Juni Calafat.

If Ethan Nwaneri finally gets minutes in the matches to be played at the Emirates Stadium and Santiago Bernabéu, the white sports management would considerably advance their scouting of the player. Because the lack of data regarding the performance of the '53' in big moments establishes reasonable doubts in the Valdebebas offices about his hypothetical transfer.

Be that as it may, Real Madrid will not lose sight of the young English winger's performance over the coming weeks. Despite progress toward a renewal, the 'Vinícius case' still worries many sectors of Madridism... because the Saudi Arabian clubs interested in signing the '7' verdeamarelo would not give in so easily.

The signing of Ethan Nwaneri could be the operation that replaces one of the current leaders of Santiago Bernabéu locker room. But that status still seems too far for a footballer who is just beginning his journey in the European football elite, although it is true that he is leaving very striking records.
