With no space at Real, Rodrygo becomes a target for signings by Arsenal and Manchester City
Rodrygo’s role at Real Madrid has become increasingly uncertain, and two Premier League giants Arsenal and Manchester City are now preparing moves for the Brazilian forward.
Out of Xabi Alonso’s plans?
The 23-year-old winger has struggled for minutes since last season and was once again left on the bench during Real Madrid’s La Liga opener on Tuesday (18). Despite warming up, Rodrygo was not called upon by manager Xabi Alonso, fueling speculation that he could be on the way out of the Bernabéu.
Arsenal propose loan, City aim for permanent deal
According to TBR Football, both Arsenal and Manchester City are closely monitoring the situation.
- Arsenal have already made contact, signaling they would prefer a loan deal with a purchase option included.
- Manchester City, meanwhile, are pushing for a permanent transfer and have held talks with the player’s representatives, although no formal bid has yet been made.
Real Madrid’s stance
For now, Real Madrid have not issued an official position regarding Rodrygo’s future. Reports in the Spanish press suggest the club would only consider letting him leave for an offer in the region of €110 million, a figure that could test the financial strength of both Premier League suitors.
With his playing time limited and two English heavyweights circling, Rodrygo’s future could be one of the defining transfer stories of this window.
