According to The Evening Standard, FC Barcelona and Liverpool are also interested in signing Gabriel Moscardo from Corinthians, and Chelsea is prepared to challenge Arsenal for his services. Chelsea plans to explore a transfer for Moscardo in January, with a possible price tag of about £26 million. However, Corinthians is holding off on negotiations until after their presidential elections on November 25. Over the summer, Chelsea made a formal offer to Corinthians for Moscardo, but it was rejected.
Simultaneously, Brazilian media sources stated that Arsenal was among the teams to keep an eye on in the Moscardo competition, given that individuals associated with the Gunners had communicated with Corinthians' agents to obtain details about the player. Moscardo was also viewed by Manchester City, and Corinthians quickly responded to the increased interest in him by extending his contract until June 2026.
