Real Madrid Confidencial Contacts intensify: the club that wants to sign Rodrygo now is coming in full force
The future of the Brazilian Rodrygo Goes is hanging in the air and will be decided after the Club World Cup
Real Madrid doesn't want to focus on anything other than the Club World Cup, so the time for signings and departures will come after the world tournament.
Xabi Alonso wants everyone to stay focused, something he has already made clear to his players, especially because they are facing a unique opportunity to make history.
However, the name of the Brazilian Rodrygo Goes is on everyone's lips, a situation that will only intensify in the coming weeks.
"I see Rodrygo doing well, I see him motivated. The other day it was a technical decision. He's still important and we're going to need him. He's a special player, I think he's going to play a key role in the Club World Cup," said the Basque coach early this morning at a press conference before facing RB Salzburg at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia in the final match of the group stage of the world competition.
Mikel Arteta's Arsenal is paying close attention
The "problem" for Real Madrid, if it can be called that, is that Arsenal is very eager to secure the services of the Paulista.
Florentino Pérez and José Ángel Sánchez know that the "11" for Los Blancos has a great reputation in the Premier League, so it would be a golden opportunity for the club to cash in and get rid of a problem that began during the last stage of the "Ancelotti era" and that doesn't seem to have an easy solution.
Mikel Arteta, aware of this situation and of the good personal relationship he has with Xabi Alonso, hopes to take advantage of this problem for Real Madrid.
This explains why the Gunners' coach asked Arsenal's executives to make an effort for the Paulista, since he believes that with him they could make a significant leap in quality.
For now, the club won't make any moves until the end of the Club World Cup, something Xabi Alonso has specifically requested.
The Basque coach prefers to sit down with his coaching staff to evaluate what happened after the world tournament and start making decisions for the 2025-2026 season.
