Spain's "Real Madrid" club has made the decision to sell one of its bright talents in the attacking line – Brazilian player Rodrigo Goes. The Madrid team is expecting offers of at least 100 million euros for the player's transfer. This was reported by Spain's Relevo publication.
According to reports, the management of the "Royal Club" decided to put Rodrigo up for transfer after the current season ends. This decision was influenced by the arrival of superstars like Kylian Mbappe and Jude Bellingham to the team over the past two years. As a result, the 24-year-old Brazilian forward has gradually fallen out of the starting lineup and has become less prominent.
Currently, "Real's" attacking line consists of Kylian Mbappe, Jude Bellingham, and Vinicius Junior. The strong form and good understanding of this trio have left Rodrigo without a place in the starting lineup. Even many football fans and experts can no longer imagine the Madrid team without this trio.
It should be noted that Rodrigo Goes joined "Real" in 2019 from Brazil's "Santos" club. During his time there, Rodrigo has scored many important goals for the Madrid team in significant tournaments such as the Champions League, La Liga, and the Copa del Rey, becoming one of the club's favorite players.
However, the situation has changed this season. Current head coach Carlo Ancelotti and his expected successor Xabi Alonso cannot guarantee Rodrigo's role in the starting lineup. For this reason, the Brazilian player has begun to seriously consider his future.
It has been revealed that two leading clubs in England – "Manchester City" and "Arsenal" – are showing serious interest in Rodrigo's services. Both clubs are reportedly ready to compete to bring Rodrigo into their ranks and meet "Real's" demands.
"Manchester City" head coach Josep Guardiola believes that the Brazilian player fits well as a multifunctional forward for his team and has made him one of the main transfer targets for the upcoming season.
At the same time, Rodrigo himself is not rushing to make a decision and is eagerly awaiting the arrival of the expected new head coach Xabi Alonso. If the new coach does not guarantee him a place in the starting lineup, the Brazilian player will be ready to consider new offers and change clubs.
Regardless, the topic of Rodrigo Goes' future in the summer transfer market will be one of the most interesting and important issues. This transfer is expected to further intensify the competition among Europe's top clubs.
