According to a report from TBR, Manchester City are in talks to beat Arsenal to the signature of Rodrygo Goes. The Real Madrid star could be on the move this summer, and multiple top clubs have been alerted about his possible availability. Liverpool are also believed to be interested in his services.
Rodrygo made a name for himself at Santos before joining Los Blancos in the summer of 2019. He has only gone from strength to strength over the years and has established himself as one of the best young forwards in the world.
While the arrival of Kylian Mbappe did have an impact on his role in the team, he was still a key figure at Madrid till last season. However, he hasn’t been a regular starter under Xabi Alonso, who has preferred having Arda Guler in the starting XI.
The Brazilian winger is frustrated by the lack of game time and is reportedly looking for a move away from the club. Real Madrid are also ready to sanction his departure as long as they receive the right financial offer.
Arsenal are keen on having him in their ranks. The North London club are looking to bolster the left flank and considers the 24-year-old a top target. Andrea Berta has been working on a potential deal for some time.
The Gunners are considered the most serious contenders for the Brazilian winger, and they do have an advantage as they can offer him a guaranteed starting spot on the left. However, it’s far from done, just yet, and his intermediaries have been in talks with other top clubs.
Manchester City are one of the clubs that are interested in his services. They have been offered the chance to sign the Real Madrid star, and he could certainly prove to be a valuable addition to their squad thanks to his versatility.
City could cause serious problems for Arsenal, as they certainly have a more appealing project. Meanwhile, Liverpool are also in the mix. The Reds are looking to add more quality to their attack, and Arne Slot would surely love to have someone of Rodrygo’s quality at his disposal. They have been made aware of his availability, and it will be interesting to see if they do make a move.
