Reportedly, there are a number of Premier League clubs lining up to sign Rodrygo from Real Madrid in the summer. It is believed that Real Madrid would be open to offers starting at £85m, a reasonable price for a player of his quality.
Rodrygo has been with the Real Madrid first team since 2019, where he has developed into an excellent player. However, with Kylian Mbappe expected to join in the summer, there is a feeling that Rodrygo may become surplus to requirements. Therefore, him leaving the club would make sense to get game time, as sad as it would be for fans.
