Brazilian international Rodrygo's future at Real Madrid remains uncertain. With Xabi Alonso now at the helm, the Brazilian's minutes have significantly dwindled, sparking speculation over his role in the new manager's tactical setup. His absence from the lineup in crucial fixtures, such as the FIFA Club World Cup semi-final against PSG, has only fueled transfer rumors.
Bayern Munich, Arsenal lineup for Rodrygo
Bundesliga champions Bayern Munich have shown keen interest in the winger, especially after parting ways with Leroy Sane, who recently sealed a permanent move to Galatasaray. Bayern had initially set their sights on Liverpool's Luis Diaz, tabling a €67.5 million bid for the Colombian attacker.
But with Liverpool rejecting the offer, the German side is now seriously considering Rodrygo as a top alternative to strengthen their attacking options for the upcoming season. The German champions reportedly are ready to offer €100M for the Brazilian attacker.
Premier League side Arsenal is also reportedly in the mix, eyeing Rodrygo as a potential reinforcement to bolster their squad depth and attacking firepower. The Gunners are looking to build on their recent domestic form and mount a serious challenge in Europe.
Rodrygo's career at Real Madrid
Since joining the Spanish giants from Santos FC in 2019 for a reported €45 million, the 24-year-old forward has been a valuable asset at the Santiago Bernabéu, netting 68 goals in 270 appearances. Known for his versatility across the frontline and his knack for delivering in high-stakes moments most notably his dramatic brace against Manchester City in the 2022 Champions League semi-final Rodrygo has cemented his status as a big-game player.
Once a guaranteed starter under Carlo Ancelotti, the Brazilian now finds himself at a career crossroads. Whether he remains in Madrid to fight for his place or seeks a fresh start elsewhere, one thing is clear Rodrygo won’t be short of suitors willing to bet on his talent and match-winning abilities.
