If the situation of Vinicius in Real Madrid seems a little clearer today, with the displayed will of the Brazilian winger to continue the adventure among the Merengues despite the golden bridges proposed by Saudi Arabia for a few years already, it is his compatriot Rodrygo which could leave Casa Blanca. The 24 -year -old striker, very useful in Real by his versatility, was not put on the list of transfers by his managers.
But Arsenal would have targeted Rodrygo Goes and would be ready to put 90 million euros on the table in a few days, after the Club World Cup that Real in the United States is playing. According to AS And MarcaFlorentino Pérez could study the proposals he will eventually receive for his international Auriverde. But which would also force him to find, in the event of transfer, a new offensive talent in order to accompany Arda Güler and Brahim Diaz in second offensive options.
The Gunners are determined to hit hard on the summer transfer window. In addition to the jackpot sent to Sporting to afford the Viktor Gyökeres scorer, the training managed by Mikel Arteta has visibly accommodating two other offensive cracks. To compete with Martin Odegaard as number 10, Maghnes Akliouche is in the viewfinder, like the English international Eberechi Eze, a little older (27 years against 23) and already twirling in the Premier League with Crystal Palace.
Ronaldo, the biggest sale of Real
On the wings, to assist Bukayo Saka on the right or send the too tender Gabriel Martinelli to the bench (alongside the disappointing Leandro Trossard), Arsenal targeted Ademola Lookman, the Nigerian Fire-Follet of Atalanta, and therefore Rodrygo. The reigning African Ballon d'Or is cheaper (it is also 27 years old), but it is requested by several clubs (Atlético in particular).
If Rodrygo is sold for 90 million euros, it would simply become the second largest sale in the history of Real behind Cristiano Ronaldo, bought for more than 110 million by Juventus in 2018. Angel Di Maria and Casemiro reported 75 million euros in Casa Blanca. They were both recruited (very expensive) by Manchester United.
