According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, talks are ongoing between Arsenal and Sao Paulo for Brazilian forward Marquinhos. A new meeting took place today, but there are still details to discuss before the full agreement.
This comes after Goal Brasil reported that Arsenal have offered £2.5 million for Sao Paulo winger Marquinhos, who is said to have a £42m release clause. The report adds, that there’s a wish for this negotiation to have an outcome ‘as soon as possible’, with confidence for a ‘happy ending’ for Arsenal.
