Rodrygo is one of the most promising talents in the Real Madrid squad. Now two top European clubs, FC Bayern and Liverpool FC, are said to be showing interest in the 22-year-old.
In the current season, Rodrygo was part of the regular staff in the absence of Vinicius Junior, who was recently missing from Real Madrid due to a hamstring injury. But since his Brazilian compatriot’s return, Rodrygo has had to sit on the bench again.
In addition, the 22-year-old’s performances for the Royals were anything but convincing. In eleven competitive games, the 16-time national player scored one goal and one assist. The winger, who often had to start in the center due to the lack of a world-class nine in the Madrid squad, could therefore apparently be looking to leave Spain.
FC Bayern: At least 90 million euros for Rodrygo
“El Nacional” claims to have learned that “at the Santiago Bernabéu there are doubts as to whether he has enough skills to be an integral part of the Real Madrid team.” If the Brazilian is not able to build on his performance from the previous season soon, he will be at risk of becoming a reserve in the long term.
The Catalan portal speculates that the competitive situation at Real due to a possible change for Kylian Mbappé and the already confirmed transfer of Sturm-Jewel Endrick could lead to Rodrygo deciding on a change of air in the summer.
The report names FC Bayern and Liverpool FC as possible interested parties, who are closely monitoring the attacker’s situation. However, the chance of signing Rodrygo is apparently slim. According to El Nacional, Real president Florentino Pérez is reluctant to let the striker go. Accordingly, an offer of well over 90 million euros would be necessary to change the 76-year-old’s mind.
