According to Fichajes, Chelsea are preparing to make an €80 million move for Rodrygo Goes and have been in contact with Real Madrid through intermediaries. The Brazilian international is rumoured to want a new challenge in his career, which could compel the Spanish giants to cash in in the summer.

Arsenal were interested, although Real Madrid’s asking price may see the Gunners abandon the chase for Rodrygo.

It will also be a choice for the Brazilian considering a lot many teams will be in the market to sign him, so the Blues must be prepared to face off competition as well as pay a top price for the player.
