An Offer that Changes Everything: Saudi Arabia Tempts a Madrid Player, It's Not Vini

Just like during last summer's market, Saudi Arabia has once again set its sights on Real Madrid. After failing in their attempt to sign Vinícius Júnior, the Arab league has returned with another multi-million offer. However, after Vinícius's refusal to leave the white club, Saudi interest has shifted to another Meringue star.

Rodrygo Goes is now the player being tempted to leave Real Madrid. Al Hilal is the club that has shown strong interest in acquiring the forward's services. With Neymar's departure practically a fact, the team sees Rodrygo as the ideal successor to be the new Brazilian star.

While Saudi Arabia's intentions are to have both Vinícius and Rodrygo, the first move would be to transfer the former Santos player. Given the doubts surrounding his environment and the complicated season he's had, Rodrygo's future is uncertain.

The temptation of Arabia

Rodrygo Goes is, rightfully so, one of the best players at Real Madrid. Since his arrival at the club in 2019, the Brazilian has only solidified his place in the team. However, the current season has presented more problems than expected for the Osasco star.

Injuries and the presence of Mbappé are factors that have raised doubts about his future. Despite achieving 8 goals and 4 assists this season, his numbers are lower than those of the Frenchman and Vinícius.

In light of this, Al Hilal has seen the opportunity to try to tempt the Brazilian with an offer hard to refuse. Even so, the contract until 2028, the 1 billion euro clause, and the desire to continue succeeding complicate Rodrygo's departure.

Rodrygo's decision

Even though this market still has a few weeks left, Real Madrid is calm with Rodrygo. While the offer from Arabia might be tempting, Rodrygo knows there's no better team for him right now than Real Madrid.
