Tottenham wants Rodrygo and enters the race for his permanent signing
Tottenham Hotspur have expressed interest in signing Brazilian forward Rodrygo from Real Madrid, joining a growing list of Premier League clubs monitoring the 24-year-old’s uncertain situation at the Santiago Bernabéu.
According to journalist Eduardo Burgos, Spurs have made preliminary contact with the player’s representatives to explore a possible deal, though no formal offer has been submitted. Liverpool and Manchester City have also inquired about Rodrygo’s availability but, like Tottenham, remain in the early stages of communication.
Rodrygo’s Role Diminishes Under Xabi Alonso
Since the arrival of manager Xabi Alonso, Rodrygo has seen his role diminish significantly at Real Madrid. The forward, who once featured prominently under Carlo Ancelotti, has struggled for minutes and failed to make an impression off the bench. As a result, his future with Los Blancos has come under increased scrutiny.
Real Madrid Set Asking Price
Sources close to the club reveal that Real Madrid would consider selling Rodrygo this summer if the right offer comes in. The valuation has been set at €110 million, a fee the Spanish giants believe reflects the winger’s potential, age, and international pedigree.
Despite the high asking price, the club’s board is reportedly open to negotiating, particularly if funds are needed to reinforce other key areas of the squad.
Competition Brewing in the Premier League
Tottenham’s interest is seen as a statement of intent, especially as the club seeks to bolster its attack for the upcoming season. However, the North London side will likely face stiff competition from league rivals, with both Liverpool and Manchester City keeping tabs on the player’s availability.
Rodrygo remains under contract with Real Madrid until 2028, and while his exit isn’t guaranteed, the growing interest could prompt the Spanish side to seriously consider incoming offers in the current transfer window.
