Arsenal make early contact over Corinthians Breno Bidon

By on January 13, 2026

Arsenal have taken early steps to explore a possible move for Breno Bidon, according to reports from TNT Brasil.

The 20-year-old midfielder has been on the radar of several European clubs after his steady rise in Brazil.

Mikel Arteta’s side are said to be gathering information as part of their long-term squad planning. Sources in Brazil claim Arsenal have already opened lines of communication with Corinthians regarding the player.

The contact is understood to be informal, with no formal bid or price discussion taking place at this stage.

Arsenal sound out Bidon camp

The report suggests that Arsenal also reached out to Dodici Sports, the agency representing the young midfielder. The talks were described as exploratory rather than advanced, with a focus on Bidon’s current situation.

No figures were mentioned during the conversations, and no offer was placed on the table. The London club simply wanted clarity on the player’s plans and Corinthians’ stance.

Bidon, who is still developing his game, has impressed with his calm style and smart movement. His growth at Corinthians has not gone unnoticed outside Brazil.

Arsenal see him as a possible future option rather than an immediate solution. The club are known for monitoring young talents early before making firm decisions.

Chelsea and Manchester United are also believed to be tracking Bidon’s progress closely. Both clubs are said to be interested in bringing the midfielder to the Premier League in the future.

Corinthians plan could delay any move

Despite the interest, Corinthians already have a clear plan for Bidon’s future. According to local outlet Itatiaia, the club do not wish to sell him any time soon.

Corinthians are reportedly aiming to keep Bidon until the end of the year. That timeline would place a possible exit around the middle of the 2026 to 2027 season in England.

The Brazilian side believe another year at the club will benefit both player and team. They feel regular game time will help Bidon develop further and gain more exposure.

Corinthians also believe his value could rise if he continues to perform consistently. This approach is designed to protect the club’s interests while supporting the player’s growth.

However, the club may be forced to rethink their stance under certain conditions. For now, Corinthians appear relaxed about outside interest and are in no rush to sell.

Arsenal and other clubs are expected to continue monitoring the situation closely.
