Madrid and Xabi Alonso strike a deal allowing Rodrygo's sale, provided an appropriate bid arises
**Arsenal Eyeing Brazilian Winger Rodrygo Goes as Potential Summer Signing**
Reports suggest that Arsenal are keen on signing Real Madrid's Brazilian winger, Rodrygo Goes, this summer. The Gunners are in search of a high-quality wide attacker to bolster their squad, and Rodrygo appears to be a top target[1].
Mikel Arteta, Arsenal's manager, views Rodrygo as a key player who can complement Bukayo Saka and lead the team's project[1]. The Brazilian forward has expressed dissatisfaction with his current situation at the Santiago Bernabeu, and it seems he is open to a move[2].
Arsenal have reportedly made no specific offer as of yet, but they are prepared to pay up to €90 million for the 23-year-old's services[1]. Rodrygo himself is said to prioritise a move to the Premier League, with Arsenal as his "absolute priority" if a deal can be agreed with Real Madrid[4].
However, Real Madrid's new manager, Xabi Alonso, is yet to fully decide on Rodrygo's role, and discussions might be delayed until after Rodrygo focuses on the FIFA Club World Cup[1][2]. There is competition for Rodrygo's signature, with Saudi club Al-Nassr also expressing interest, but the player seems to prefer a move to Arsenal[2][3].
Rodrygo's media advisor has confirmed that no formal offers have been made while Rodrygo is currently at the Club World Cup, but Arsenal appear to be the front-runner for his services[3].
It is worth noting that Rodrygo's time at Real Madrid has been marred by reservations about his ability to perform consistently, but his quality has not gone unnoticed by Arsenal's coaching staff[5]. If a suitable offer is made, the Real Madrid board and head coach Xabi Alonso have agreed to sell Rodrygo Goes this summer[6].
In conclusion, the transfer link between Arsenal and Rodrygo Goes is serious and ongoing, with both parties seemingly interested in a potential move. Arsenal are prepared for a significant financial outlay, and Rodrygo seems to favour a move to the Emirates Stadium this summer[1][4]. The next few weeks are expected to provide more clarity on the situation.
Arsenal, with a keen interest in bolstering their squad, are reportedly eyeing a move for Brazilian winger Rodrygo Goes, who has expressed dissatisfaction with his current situation at Real Madrid. If a deal can be agreed, the Premier League club appears to be Rodrygo's "absolute priority" among European leagues, such as LaLiga.
