Arsenal set sights on signing €45 million-rated Real Madrid winger
According to Fichajes, Arsenal have set their sights firmly on Real Madrid’s Brahim Diaz as a top target to reinforce their attack ahead of the 2025/26 season.
The outlet mentions that Mikel Arteta is pushing to bring in the Moroccan playmaker, believing he could be the answer to several lingering issues in Arsenal’s front line, most notably on the left flank, where Gabriel Martinelli’s inconsistency has become a concern.
In that regard, Brahim has emerged as a prime candidate not only to compete with Martinelli but also to provide depth across the attacking midfield and wing positions.
Mikel Arteta is a fan
It is believed that Arteta sees him as a valuable asset capable of rotating with Bukayo Saka on the right or stepping in as an advanced midfielder to support Martin Odegaard.
Given the intense schedule of a club competing across domestic and European competitions, such versatility is crucial.

The admiration for Brahim in north London isn’t new. Arsenal’s interest dates back to his early days, and now, with the 25-year-old facing limited opportunities at the Santiago Bernabeu, the Gunners are ready to act.
Limited opportunities at Real Madrid
Despite showing his class when called upon, Brahim has been unable to secure a regular starting role due to Real Madrid’s abundance of attacking talent.
The emergence of Arda Guler and the potential return of Nico Paz will only added to the competition.
With Kylian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr. already booking the frontline, Brahim’s chances of playing meaningful minutes may shrink even further.
As a result, Real Madrid are open to selling him if a suitable offer arrives. That scenario gives Arsenal a golden opportunity to pounce.
Negotiations will likely hinge on Madrid’s valuation and Arsenal’s willingness to meet it. But all signs suggest the Premier League side are ready to move decisively.
