Barcelona and Brighton are interested in Estoril’s 18-year-old defender Jordan Arnolin. Lille are also monitoring the Portuguese player, Record reports.
Barcelona sent a scout to watch Arnolin in Estoril’s 4-0 defeat to Porto. The Catalan club has followed him since his first appearances for Portugal’s under-19 team, and its interest is growing. Lille also sent a representative to the match.
Arnolin made his debut in Estoril’s starting lineup against Porto. He played in the unfamiliar position of defensive midfielder. Brighton sees the young player as a promising prospect who can play in two positions, but may wait to assess him in more first-team matches.
Arnolin has made five appearances in the 2026/2027 season without registering a goal or assist.
