Arsenal will reportedly have to fend off interest from Real Madrid to strike a deal for Brazilian midfielder Danilo this summer - just months after they passed on the chance to sign the Palmeiras ace back in January.
The 21-year-old enforcer has caught the eye of some of Europe's top clubs after his dazzling displays in Brazil. Danilo's impressive form had seen him linked with a €20million (£17.1m) switch to the Premier League back in the winter transfer window - however, a move to Arsenal failed to materialise.
And the Gunners could be left to rue that missed opportunity, after a new report from MundoDeportivo claimed that both Los Blancos and Atletico Madrid are now keeping a close eye on the midfield starlet.
