AS reports that Arteta told Vinicius Jr that he would be the centrepiece of his project.
The 26-year-old will see the Arsenal team built around him.
Arsenal are ready to offer up to €150m for his signature.
Vinicius Jr reported back to Madrid for pre-season training on Monday and underwent medical checks with the LaLiga side.
The Brazilian is expected to hold face-to-face talks with Madrid’s hierarchy this week to sort out this future.
