Florentino sets price for Rodrygo Goes

Real Madrid has set €80 million as the starting point to begin negotiations for Rodrygo Goes, who has officially been included in the list of players available for transfer. The decision, supported by Xabi Alonso, comes as a result of Rodrygo's decreasing prominence, highlighted during the Club World Cup where his involvement was limited. With the emergence of new talents and fierce competition in the white attack, his situation has become untenable.

Rodrygo, who arrived at the Bernabéu in 2019 from Santos for half that amount, has shown flashes of quality, including crucial goals in key Champions League nights. However, his inconsistency and the saturation of offensive talent—with Mbappé, Vinicius, and Bellingham as untouchable pieces—have relegated the '11' to a secondary role. Pressure from his environment, especially from his father and agent, has also influenced the club's stance.

Real Madrid wants to sell Rodrygo

Although his market value remains high, Madrid would be willing to close his transfer for an amount below the estimated €90 million, opening the door to clubs with financial muscle. Among the interested parties, Arsenal stands out as the main candidate to secure his services, while other European entities also closely monitor his situation.

With the summer transfer market still ongoing, the white sports management seeks to expedite departures to maintain salary balance and make room for emerging talents like Arda Güler or Gonzalo García. Rodrygo's future seems to be moving away from Chamartín, and his destiny could be resolved in the coming weeks if an offer meets the conditions set by the club. The renewal process at Madrid continues, with Rodrygo being the next piece on the move.
