EXCLUSIVE: Arsenal make offer to sign Liam Delap alongside Viktor Gyokeres

That is according to Relevo, who claim that Arsenal have recently submitted an enquiry over a potential summer deal for the Brazilian winger amid their pursuit of significant attacking reinforcements ahead of the 2025-26 campaign.

Furthermore, although Rodrygo still has three years remaining on his current contract with Los Blancos, the Spanish giants are already preparing for a potential departure and they have identified Paris Saint-Germain wonderkid Desire Doue as a possible replacement, as per Fichajes.

The Spanish publication report that Real Madrid are even willing to submit a €100 million offer in order to sign the France international if Rodrygo departs this summer.

Real Madrid want to sign Desire Doue

Doue has caught the eye since his move from Stade Rennais to PSG last summer, scoring 13 goals and providing 11 assists in 49 appearances across all competitions for Luis Enrique’s side.

He has particularly impressed in the Champions League, and Real Madrid are reportedly eager to bring him to the Spanish capital amid their pursuit of several summer reinforcements.

Carlo Ancelotti is set to be replaced by Xabi Alonso at the helm, while Real Madrid are expected to sign Trent Alexander-Arnold on a Bosman deal after he confirmed his decision to leave Liverpool when his contract expires in July.

Los Blancos are also interested in Bournemouth duo Dean Huijsen and Milos Kerkez, Sporting CP striker Viktor Gyokeres and Como attacking midfielder Nico Paz, who left the club to move to Italy last year.
