Rodrygo considers Liverpool as his future with Madrid becoming less certain
Liverpool has initiated negotiations with Rodrygo’s representatives, marking a significant milestone in their pursuit of the Brazilian. The Reds are showing increasing interest in a player who might soon be let go from the Santiago Bernabéu, even if they haven’t made contact with Real Madrid yet.
With Kylian Mbappé, Jude Bellingham, and Vinícius Jr. taking center stage, Rodrygo’s job has become less important under new manager Xabi Alonso.
The 24-year-old nevertheless had a respectable season with 14 goals and 11 assists, but his future remains unclear. According to reports, Rodrygo is the star that Real Madrid’s top management wants to let go this summer, and Xabi Alonso has no plans to make him a major part of his project. The Brazilian is now open to departing, but only to the place of his choosing, even if he had previously expressed a wish to stay.
The Premier League is his preferred league, and Liverpool has become a strong competitor. Arne Slot wants to continue assembling a strong team, and Rodrygo might be the next big-money addition after recent acquisitions like Florian Wirtz and Jeremie Frimpong. Liverpool is getting ready for what might be one of the biggest moves of the summer as negotiations between the player’s entourage and the Merseyside club continue.
