Didac Aguirre Laporta swaps Rashford for Rodrygo, in Brazil they announce the mother of all bombs
The unexpected interest that Rodrygo Goes has caused at Barcelona for this summer transfer window
Throughout this transfer window, one of the biggest unknowns that has been kept is Rodrygo Goes's destination. The Brazilian winger, after the Club World Cup, doesn't have a guaranteed spot at Real Madrid. According to what we know at Defensa Central, Barcelona has shown interest in signing Rodrygo.
Although Marcus Rashford was expected to be Barcelona's next signing, this has completely changed. Joan Laporta has turned to intermediaries to get in touch with the Brazilian footballer. The goal of this is to communicate its interest in carrying out his transfer during this transfer window.
However, there hasn't been any discussion so far about this operation. The signing, of course, is quite unlikely to be completed. The historic rivalry between both clubs is a factor that Rodrygo simply can't ignore.
Barcelona's surprise move
In a transfer window where it has only managed to sign Joan García, Barcelona has sought to deliver a surprise. Rodrygo Goes, right winger for Real Madrid, is its main target to strengthen its attack. The uncertainty about his future has motivated the Culers to think they really have a chance to sign the Merengue star.
However, the love that Rodrygo feels for Real Madrid is a factor to consider. Despite his current situation, the Brazilian would never consider committing a betrayal of this kind. Real Madrid trust that, if he leaves, Rodrygo Goes will choose a better option.
Although his performance during the last season wasn't the desired one, Rodrygo still has plenty of room for improvement. Signing for Barcelona would simply be a mistake by a footballer who still has a lot to prove.
A difficult signing to complete
In addition to all this, Rodrygo Goes's value exceeds Barcelona's poor finances. The Culer side has spent the last few years suffering an economic crisis that hasn't improved. Because of this, Real Madrid have full confidence that, no matter how much Barcelona want it, Rodrygo will never be a Culer.
