The highly-rated 19-year-old is keen to make the move and São Paulo wants to strike a deal for the risk of losing the teenager for free when his contract runs out, says the Daily Mail.
Marquinhos signed a five-year contract in 2019 but FIFA refused to accept it as he was underage when he signed so the contract is only valid for three years under normal regulations.
Sao Paulo has tried to convince him to sign an extension but he has turned down their offer.
Arsenal is offering around £2.9million and negotiations are advancing after a further meeting on Friday.
Wolves and Atletico Madrid have also shown an interest but Arsenal is expected to finalise terms in the coming days.
