Real Madrid could be ready to let €100m Liverpool target go

Real Madrid and Liverpool have come across each other on the pitch on numerous occasions in recent years, as they have been two of the most consistent teams in European football. They have competed in two Champions League finals, with Los Blancos coming out on top both times. The two sides met in Europe’s elite competition last season as well, in the last 16. The Spanish giants were victors once again. They have certainly had the Reds’ number.

Now, it looks like the two could be involved off the pitch as well. Liverpool were linked with both Federico Valverde and Aurelien Tchouameni in the summer. And now, it looks like they might have their sights on another Real Madrid player.

Reports coming out of Spain have suggested that Liverpool view Rodrygo as a potential replacement if Mohamed Salah leaves the club. The Egyptian has been linked with a move to Al-Ittihad for a while.

Rodrygo is a regular starter for Real Madrid right now. But things change quickly at Santiago Bernabeu. The club have shown in recent years that for the right offer, they are willing to let even key players go.

As reported by Fichajes (via Football365), Real Madrid ‘would be willing to listen to offers’ for Rodrygo ‘given the possible arrival’ of Kylian Mbappe next year.

Rodrygo has started all six games for Real Madrid this season but has not particularly impressed. He has scored once and assisted none, and is on a five-game goalless run at the moment.

One would have expected his numbers to go up, as he is now playing more centrally in the new 4-4-2 formation. But it looks like the Brazilian international winger is still coming to grips with his new role in Carlo Ancelotti’s setup.
