Rodrygo rejects Tottenham's offer and would only go to 3 clubs if he doesn't stay

One of the key names that Real Madrid is leaving in the 2025 summer transfer market is that of a player who might not leave the first team. The saga created around Rodrygo Goes since the Club World Cup has led some squads from the European football elite to show interest in signing him.

The majority of those approaches are recorded from the Premier League, a domestic competition that remains the top priority for the "11" verdeamarelo. Not even the attempts from other clubs in Ligue 1 or the Bundesliga have been enough to steer Rodrygo away from his true goal: to play in England if he doesn't stay.

The latest party interested in claiming the contract of the Osasco forward has been left out of those talks through a very firm rejection. The Brazilian player's camp, according to information published by Mario Cortegana, has indicated that the current merengue winger has no intention of joining Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

The squad presided over by Daniel Levy emerged a few days ago as one of the most select candidates to sign Rodrygo Goes... but has been ruled out much faster than expected. The South American player's goal is clear: he wants to move to a club that can consistently compete to win the Champions League.

He doesn't want anything to do with them

That's why Tottenham Hotspur, whose sporting inconsistency in recent years in Europe is taking its toll, doesn't present itself as a viable option in strictly competitive terms. That's why only three clubs, all in the Premier League, would be chosen by Rodrygo Goes to continue his career away from Real Madrid: Liverpool, Arsenal, and Manchester City.

For now, the squad that seems to have the best chance of acquiring Rodrygo's contract is Liverpool. The departure of Colombian winger Luis Díaz to Bayern Munich is a major incentive for those rumors. Also, the hypothetical exit of Federico Chiesa, who has barely had the playing time he desired under the management of Arne Slot.

Those two notable losses in the Anfield Road forward line-up would warrant the signing of a top-level player currently in the European football elite. With most forwards firmly settled in their teams or starring in the latest summer sagas, the option of Real Madrid's "11" verdeamarelo emerges as the most prominent.

Arsenal and Manchester City's candidacies, very strong at first, have lost ground over time... in addition to being affected by the merengue demand of €100 million. From the Valdebebas offices, they demand payment of that amount to let the player leave, a sum that seems excessive for all his offers.
