Arsenal Newsnow: In the forthcoming transfer window, Arsenal reportedly wants to sign Matheus Gonçalves, according journalist Jorge Nicola (h/t SportWitness). The 17-year-old prodigy has caught the eye of many European clubs. The Gunners are determined to sign him if they can.
The Gunners have been monitoring the young man for some time. They like what they’ve seen so far. The adolescent is seen as a major long-term possibility. Thus several teams are eager to spend much to sign him.
Gonçalves has advanced throughout his Flamengo career. He’s just 17, but he’s already played in 11 games for their first squad and contributed to 2 goals. The 17-year-old is one of the most promising young players.

Nicola said in a video posted to YouTube that former Flamengo manager Dorival Junior and the current coach both think Gonçalves has great potential as a player. He is the academy’s most highly anticipated young talent.
Their third-youngest player to ever score for the first team is just 17 years old. Many teams are interested in signing him as soon as he turns 18 in August. One team that wants him badly is Arsenal. They’re prepared to go to any lengths to get him.
The Brazilian team’s current deal with Gonçalves expires in 2025. Despite other teams’ interest, the teen’s release clause is set at €100 million. It will be interesting to watch whether someone trips it or pressures Flamengo into selling at a discount.
