Real Madrid striker Rodrygo Goes remains the most likely big deviation from the Santiago Bernabeu this summer, but there is still little clarity about where the Brazilian could end up. The Premier League seems to be his most likely destination, but there is not the abundance of options that you could imagine for a player of his talent.
The 24-year-old enforced a death invoice at the start of last season despite the arrival of Kylian Mbappe, but as the season progressed, his influence decreased. After he was picked up during the Copa del Rey final during the break, he did not play again until the first match of the Club World Cup against Al-Hilal. Despite offering an assist for Gonzalo Garcia Torres, it remains his only start in their last 11 games.
In recent months, Arsenal has been consistently the side that was most connected to Rodrygo. After the movements for Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokees, however, the Gunners were just as much less likely to move to Rodrygo, and now Cadena SER report reported that Arsenal will definitely not be his destination this summer.
Now it seems that Liverpool is currently the side that is most likely going to Rodrygo. The Reds are currently chased to Hugo Ekitike after signing Florian Wirtz for big money, but if a deal can be orchestrated for Luis Diaz, they would have more room on the left for a star attacker and more money to sign one.
The prices between € 80 million and € 100 million have been quoted for Rodrygo in recent weeks, but there are increasingly real Madrid in a poor negotiating position. The International Brazil seems to have no place in the start XI with Xabi Alonso, and he would be an expensive replacement that would be unhappy with a remaining role. With a few other destinations on the table, Liverpool can negotiate a lower fee.
