Igor Paixão Transfer from Feyenoord to Arsenal

Igor Paixão has attracted interest following a successful season at Feyenoord, with Arsenal among the clubs reportedly in the market for him. Should a transfer proceed, Feyenoord must allocate 20% of the transfer fee to Coritiba, his previous club, due to retained transfer rights. Coritiba had earlier received 4.5 million from Feyenoord during Paixão's move to the Netherlands.

Arsenal is also tracking Igor Paixão, who is considered one of the best players in the Dutch league this season. He has been followed by Carlo Ancelotti, who had pre-selected him last week. Feyenoord set his price at 40 million euros.

Arsenal has added Igor Paixão to their list of potential transfer targets for the summer. He is considered an affordable alternative to the expensive Nico Williams and Leroy Sané. Mikel Arteta prefers versatile players and values Premier League experience, which gives Morgan Rogers a slight edge, but Paixão would be a cheaper option. There is no concrete interest or approach from Arsenal yet.

Arsenal is one of the clubs tracking Igor Paixao, showing interest in a potential transfer. However, Liverpool is considered the frontrunner due to Paixao's relationship with Arne Slot, a former mentor.

Igor Paixao, a 24-year-old Brazilian forward, has revitalized his career at Feyenoord, scoring 14 goals and providing 13 assists this season. His performance has attracted interest from the Premier League, with Arsenal moving for him.

Arsenal are keen on signing the Brazilian attacker Igor Paixao from Feyenoord. Arsenal need more depth in the wide areas to rotate players like Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli more often. The Brazilian would add pace, flair, and unpredictability to the Arsenal attack. Arsenal have the financial resources to pay the asking price of €30 million. They could offer Champions League football, which might give them an extra edge in the transfer race.

Arsenal and Liverpool are among the Premier League clubs that have shown interest in Feyenoord winger Igor Paixao. Sources indicated to CaughtOffside that the 24-year-old has made a positive impression on Arsenal scouts, who may consider him as a potential signing to strengthen their attack, given the injuries and reliance on their current squad. Although no discussions have taken place yet, Arsenal has received favorable reports on the player from their scouts. The estimated transfer fee is approximately €35 million. Paixao, who is versatile in various positions within a front three, has also attracted interest from clubs such as Tottenham, Aston Villa, West Ham, and Roma. Arsenal's interest in Paixao is partly motivated by their current requirement for attacking reinforcements, particularly with Bukayo Saka out due to injury. The Gunners aim to stay competitive in the title race and view Paixao as a potential value signing for around €35 million, a sum that aligns well with their budget constraints for the January transfer window.
