Tony Cascarino has warned Arsenal that they must win trophies in order to prevent William Saliba from joining Real Madrid.
Reports in France this month have claimed that Saliba has been identified as one of Madrid’s top targets for the transfer window next summer.
Arsenal, however, are in a strong negotiating position as the French defender signed a contract extension 16 months ago which keeps him tied to the club until 2027.
Cascarino, however, believes Arsenal will need win silverware both domestically and in Europe in order to fend off interest from the Champions League holders.
‘There are vultures in football hanging over football clubs all the time to try to snatch their best players,’ Cascarino told talkSPORT.
‘There’s no bigger vulture than Real Madrid. If they’re after you there’s a good chance [of the player moving].
