Arsenal have initiated contact with Fabio Vieira to assess his interest in potentially transferring to Crystal Palace. This move aligns with Arsenal's broader strategy to secure a transfer for Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace. Arsenal are contemplating a player-plus-cash deal for Eze, considering Vieira and Reiss Nelson as possible candidates to be part of the exchange. Although Arsenal are eager to acquire Eze, they are also investigating Vieira's market prospects, with noted interest from Nottingham Forest, where former Arsenal sporting director Edu is currently active. Arsenal's manager Mikel Arteta holds Vieira in high regard, but acknowledges that stiff competition for places leaves Vieira's role in the squad uncertain. Consequently, Arsenal are open to discussing Vieira's potential move to Selhurst Park as negotiations for Eze progress.
