Liverpool Makes a Move for Rodrygo and Surprises with a 'Low' Valuation
The unexpected valuation provided by Real Madrid regarding a potential departure of Rodrygo
One of the players who has been the subject of various rumors is Rodrygo Goes. After Mbappé's arrival and suffering some injuries, there has been speculation about the Brazilian's departure. This has gained traction due to the growing interest Liverpool has shown in the player.
The team managed by Arne Slot has seen Rodrygo as the perfect successor to Mohamed Salah. With the more than likely departure of the Egyptian, Liverpool is willing to make an offer for the Brazilian. 80 million euros has been cited as the price that several sources have claimed the club will demand to allow this departure.
However, given Rodrygo's importance, everything seems to indicate that his departure would occur for a minimum of 120 to 150 millions. A much more understandable and acceptable value for a player who has proven his worth in several games.
Rodrygo's value
At 24 years old, Rodrygo is facing one of the most challenging seasons since his arrival at Real Madrid. The rumors of his departure, his injuries, and the preference for players like Mbappé over him are just some of the challenges he has faced. Despite this, the 10 goals and 6 assists he has achieved show that his level hasn't declined.
Due to his current situation and future projection, Liverpool has shown interest in signing him. Understanding that Rodrygo still has much to prove and contribute, the English are preparing an offer for next summer.
Nevertheless, the Brazilian's departure from Real Madrid is far from being a simple operation. With a contract until 2028 and a hefty release clause, Liverpool will have to meet the demands of the white club if they truly seek to sign Rodrygo.
All or nothing for the English
Going from 80 to 150 million euros is something not many teams are willing to do. However, this is the situation presented to a Liverpool that must decide quickly. Fulfill Real Madrid's request or try their luck in the search for a player with a much lower value.
