Chelsea offers a player in exchange for Rodrygo, Real Madrid has already rejected it

The future of Rodrygo Goes is one of the biggest unknowns of this summer as far as Real Madrid is concerned. The Brazilian footballer finished the season injured under Carlo Ancelotti and, after the coaching change, his level hasn't changed either. In fact, Xabi Alonso chose to leave him on the bench in almost every match of the Club World Cup.

After the tournament, Xabi Alonso is already planning the 2025/26 season, and Rodrygo Goes could be one of the departures. At Real Madrid there could be departures after the first few weeks in which several expensive signings have been made. The Brazilian, along with Dani Ceballos, is one of the players who are on the way out.

Chelsea offers a swap deal to sign Rodrygo Goes

In the last few hours, Liverpool has moved into first place to secure the services of Rodrygo Goes. In fact, according to some reports from England, the "red" team will send Pini Zahavi to carry out the signing of the player.

However, Chelsea, which just won the Club World Cup, would be willing to further strengthen its attack with Rodrygo Goes. For this reason, the London club would have offered a player swap to Real Madrid, although the response from the white club has been negative.

We could be talking about a swap for Enzo Fernández, but that hasn't been the case. According to "Defensa Central", Chelsea's goal was to make a forward-for-forward swap. In that sense, the player chosen by those at Stamford Bridge would have been Nicolás Jackson.

The striker, who already played for Villarreal, is valued at around €100 million (about $108 million). However, Real Madrid believes that he isn't the right player and that a swap for Rodrygo Goes wouldn't be a good deal.

Real Madrid looks at other positions on the field

Meanwhile, at the white club, they are clear that the positions to strengthen are different. Real Madrid's goal is to sign for the defense and the midfield.

For that reason, the signing of Nicolás Jackson by Real Madrid is highly unlikely at this time. In addition, even if the white club needed a center forward, it would be quite strange for them to opt for the services of the African striker.
