Real Madrid Sets €132M Price for Rodrygo Amid Premier League Interest

Real Madrid is reportedly considering a major squad reshuffle with a potential €58 million bid for Athletic Club winger Nico Williams, which could lead to the departure of forward Rodrygo. The Brazilian winger, who struggles for playing time behind Kylian Mbappé, Vinicius Jr., and Jude Bellingham, faces an uncertain future at the club, especially with the expected arrival of new manager Xabi Alonso and his tactical preference for two strikers. Premier League clubs such as Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester City are all linked with Rodrygo, with Real Madrid reportedly setting a high valuation of around £100 million for the 24-year-old. Chelsea has shown particular interest and has reportedly contacted Rodrygo’s representatives, while Arsenal and Liverpool are considered leading contenders to secure his signature. Despite rumors of dissatisfaction and a strained relationship with teammates, Rodrygo recently denied the speculation about his unhappiness at Real Madrid. His future will likely be decided after discussions with Alonso, with Liverpool reportedly prepared to offer a club-record fee to acquire him.
