According to reports, Endrick Felipe Moreira de Sousa's proposed switch to Arsenal is off, with the forward now set to stay at Real Madrid. Despite strong links and advanced talks, the transfer has broken down. It's a setback for Arsenal, who had hoped to strengthen their squad in a key position before the deadline. Talks broke down before a deal could be reached with Arsenal, leaving the door open for clubs like Leeds, Chelsea and Tottenham to step in. At 1.91 goals scored per game this season, Arsenal already pose a big threat. Endrick Felipe Moreira de Sousa would be expected to maintain that level and give them another reliable option in attack. Real Madrid have also been linked with Bernardo Silva, Gabriel Magalhaes and Dominik Szoboszlai while Arsenal are reportedly monitoring Baris Alper Yilmaz, Serge Gnabry and Mika Godts.
