The young Arsenal prospect who could be included in the Rodrygo deal

Real Madrid must solve other sagas in the upcoming summer transfer market besides the arrivals to Santiago Bernabéu locker room. One of the footballers who could leave the first team is Rodrygo Goes, whose performance this season hasn't been the best.

Although Xabi Alonso has made it clear that "we have to talk" to define the role and place that the "verdeamarelo" number 11 will have in the "new" Real Madrid, doubts remain. Especially because of the interest from several elite European clubs, offers who could leave a substantial sum in Santiago Bernabéu coffers... which would allow the agitated transfer campaign for the Madrid defense and midfield to continue.

In England, it is noted that Real Madrid's interest in Mikel Arteta's pupils wouldn't be limited exclusively to William Saliba. Despite having succeeded in signing Dean Huijsen, Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano warns that the Madrid scouts aren't losing sight of the "2" from France. Jonathan Wilson, British journalist, warns of another target in the defense of the gunner squad.

In his words for the "Football Weekly" of the newspaper The Guardian, the renowned British reporter reveals that Arsenal's attempts to renew Myles Lewis-Skelly have failed. The lack of understanding between Arsenal's left-back and the gunner sports management would pave the way for his entry into Real Madrid's list of possible signings this summer.

Myles Lewis-Skelly's contract with Arsenal ends in the summer of 2026, a situation that is causing considerable concern in the upper echelons of Emirates Stadium. Especially considering the Madrid executives' inclination for players as free agents... and their approaches when there is one year left on the contract with their previous club.

Jonathan Wilson points out that "They must fix Myles Lewis-Skelly's contract, which ends next summer. I think the talks aren't going well from what I hear", the English reporter warns. "Real Madrid is kind of sniffing around" those talks, opening up the possibility of signing a player who would arrive as a clear starter for the team.

"Imagine Real Madrid wanting a highly valued left-back in the Premier League for free. Almost unthinkable, right?" Jonathan Wilson notes regarding that surprising Madrid interest in Myles Lewis-Skelly. In this context, Real Madrid could consider an approach for this left-back, a player they would have easy access to through Rodrygo Goes.

Indeed, the sports discipline led by Mikel Arteta is one of the most willing to sign the "verdeamarelo" number 11 according to multiple transfer market rumors. The Madrid executives would request a player swap, Rodrygo for Lewis-Skelly, perhaps adding the possibility of a small transfer fee to compensate for the "lost" value... given the affordable signing conditions of the "49" gunner compared to those of Rodrygo Goes himself.
