Real Madrid Confidencial The 2 clubs that have made a move to sign Rodrygo: Florentino is clear about it
The President is aware of Arsenal and Al Nassr's interest but will not lower the Brazilian's price to less than €100 million
Rodrygo's future is back in the spotlight. Two clubs have already taken the first step to try to sign the Brazilian. These are Arsenal and Al-Nassr.
Both have started talks with the player's entourage. They want to know the conditions and, above all, if Real Madrid would be willing to negotiate.
But Florentino Pérez is clear about it: for less than €100 million, Rodrygo isn't leaving.This is what Defensa Central has learned.
Real interest from Arsenal and Al-Nassr
The English club has been closely following the player for months and Mikel Arteta is a great admirer of his football. He believes he would fit perfectly into his system. Arsenal is willing to make an effort, although it doesn't want to enter into bidding wars.
In Saudi Arabia, Al-Nassr has also entered the scene. Cristiano Ronaldo's club is looking to make another splash in the market.
Rodrygo is liked for his youth, global image, and experience at the top level. They have already spoken with his representatives. They don't rule out making a formal offer.
Madrid is in no hurry
At Real Madrid, they aren't considering selling him or at least, not at any price. Rodrygo has a contract until 2028 and a very high release clause. Florentino considers him a valuable piece of the project, although they acknowledge that, after Mbappé's arrival, his role has been reduced.
However, if an offer close to €100 million ($100 million) comes in, the club would consider it. But in no case will they open the door for less.
Meanwhile, Rodrygo hasn't asked to leave. He feels valued and wants to fight for his place. Although he isn't unaware of the moves, he knows it won't be easy to keep his starting spot.
Long summer for Rodrygo
There's a long transfer window ahead and Rodrygo's name will keep coming up. Arsenal and Al-Nassr have already made their move.
They won't be the only ones, since Manchester City and Bayern Munich are paying close attention, but Florentino has drawn the red line. Whoever wants to sign Rodrygo will have to pay well.
For now, the Brazilian is calm, but he doesn't rule anything out. If his role is diminished under Xabi Alonso, he could reconsider his future. Everything is open and Madrid knows it.
