Offer: $120M for Rodrygo Goes, Real Madrid will give the OK

Rodrygo has a €120 million offer on the table, and the white team views it favorably

Letting go of certain footballers from the Merengue squad is one of the most important tasks the board has. One of the names that is clearly close to leaving the White club is the young Brazilian star Rodrygo. Everything seems to indicate that Saudi Arabia would be his next destination due to the €120 million ($120 million) offer they've put forward for number 11.

This player has been extremely essential at certain moments during his time with the Merengue team, with magical nights in the Champions League. However, as of today, he has left much to be desired in terms of consistency and, above all, offensive impact. That's why the Merengue club thinks the best option is to let him go, since there's no trust in his performance, not even with the new coach.

120 million for him

It's logical to think that a footballer with these characteristics, who has shown himself to be a top player at times, could reach these figures. Arab soccer is building one of the most ambitious projects in the Middle East in order to compete with the major European leagues. Several veteran players and club legends ended up leaving for this new project.

Players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Karim Benzema, Neymar Junior, among others, decided to give this league a chance and it seems they're happy. That's why they've looked for every possible way to bring not only established legends, but also promising players for their soccer. In this regard, they offer exorbitant amounts like the €120 million ($120 million) for Rodrygo to Real Madrid.

Florentino Pérez sees this as an ideal opportunity to let go of a player who no longer has anyone's trust and for a good sum. During the summer transfer window, there was talk of the possibility of leaving for other clubs for a lower amount, around €80 million ($80 million). Therefore, if the player wants to leave for a project that considers him a star, this could be his moment to do so.

They will wait in the winter

Surely during the winter transfer window, we'll see more information regarding this possible deal and the Merengue footballer's departure. The president sees this as the ideal option financially for the Brazilian and the White club. However, everything depends exclusively on what the player wants, because if he doesn't want to go there, things get complicated.
