"Arsenal are rumoured to have begun talks with a 20-year-old talent from Brazil. The Gunners will once again be no doubt looking to refresh their squad in the summer, having done so when bringing in the likes of Eberechi Eze, Viktor Gyokeres and Martin Zubimendi in 2025. But with Andrea Berta already working his magic behind the scenes, it seems Arsenal have stolen a march on another emerging star from South America."
"According to TNT Sports in Brazil, Arsenal want to sign central midfielder Breno Bidon from current champions Corinthians. Transfermarkt values the 20-year-old at just 14m (12.1m). Bidon played 56 times for the new Copa do Brasil winners in 2025, and ranked in the 89th percentile for successful take-ons and in the 99th percentile for pass completion when pitted against similar players outside of Europe's top five domestic leagues."
"TNT says Arsenal have been in touch with club representatives in Brazil about a possible move, but these talks are very early, and it is unknown whether the Gunners will decide to push ahead with their interest at this stage. Bidon is also being monitored by clubs in Italy and Portugal, and has a contract with Corinthians until December 2029. It is also worth noting that this is only the player's third season as a professional."
