Arsenal outbid Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham for Brentford’s Schade

Should Arteta snap him, claim Arsenal are running to land Brentford winger Kevin Schade, a move that would see the Gunners compete with Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur for the German talent next year. Arteta’s side see the 24‑year‑old as a potential cut‑price addition in this transfer, while the Bees look to keep him until 2028.

Impressive Premier League form and contract

Schade has made a decent start to this Premier League campaign, delivering a run of impressive form for the Bees in English football's final third. The 24‑year‑old has found the back of the net three times in five league appearances for Brentford this season. His current contract at the Gtech Community Stadium runs until the summer of 2028, meaning Arsenal could secure him on a cut‑price deal at the end of the campaign.

Described as a good dribbler, Schade can launch driving runs out wide and deliver decisive passes in the final third. He also possesses a venomous long‑range shot and can chip in with a handful of important goals from the flanks. Primarily a left‑winger, he is comfortable on the right or even as a striker if required.

The Gunners will have to outbid Liverpool, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, who are also linked with the German wide player for next year. All three clubs are expected to enter the race, intensifying the football transfer battle.

Why Arsenal could benefit

Arteta could add quality and depth to his attack, with Schade capable of competing for a regular first‑team spot at the North London club. At 24, the winger still has his best years ahead, making him a worthy target for Arsenal to pursue in 2027. His versatility would help the Gunners compete across all fronts in the future.

Only time will tell whether Schade can adapt to the physical style and high intensity of the Premier League if Arsenal secure a deal next year. Nonetheless, most observers agree that Arteta would be wise to snap the German talent up.
