Latest news about Real Madrid: the white team already has an alternative to Rodri after his signing has become complicated in the final stretch of negotiations. The chosen one is Jorthy Mokio, an 18-year-old midfielder from Ajax, whose transfer could be around 30 million euros.

The change in scenario has forced Real Madrid to act quickly. Rodri was one of the names that they liked the most to reinforce the midfield, but the Spanish international is now very close to continuing his career at FC Barcelona, practically ruling out the option of wearing white.

Real Madrid turns to Ajax after losing the option of Rodri

Within Real Madrid, they had already started to explore other possibilities due to the difficulties encountered in the Rodri operation. One that is quite convincing is Jorthy Mokio, who despite being only 18 years old, has managed to secure a place in Ajax's first team.

Mokio primarily plays as a central midfielder, although his ability to play in different positions has been consistent since his arrival in professional football. Madrid believes he has room to grow and fits into the policy of beating other major European clubs to young players.

The operation would also be far from the amounts being discussed for Rodri. The potential signing of the Ajax player could be around 30 million euros, a figure that Real Madrid would have to negotiate with the Dutch club.

Ajax also does not have the need to sell. Mokio renewed his contract in April 2026, tying him until June 30, 2031, so Ajax maintains a comfortable position if proposals come in during this transfer window.

Rodri forces Real Madrid to change plans

Mokio's emergence is directly related to what happened with Rodri. The 30-year-old midfielder was one of Madrid's main options to add experience in that area of the field after several weeks of discussions about his future.

The problem for the white team has been the progress of FC Barcelona. The player has opted for the opportunity to play at the Camp Nou, and negotiations to leave Manchester City have reached a point where Madrid has very few options to bring him back.

In recent weeks, figures close to 60 million euros had been mentioned to lure Rodri away from Manchester City. The collapse of that operation completely changes the profile that the white club can now seek: from a established player with immediate experience to an 18-year-old player also planned for the medium and long term.

Jorthy Mokio, a 30-million future bet

Mokio is not starting from scratch in professional football. When he renewed with Ajax in April, he already had 48 official matches and six goals with the first team, figures uncommon for a player who has not yet turned 20.

His growth explains why his name has appeared in the Real Madrid transfer market. The approximate price of 30 million euros does not make the operation simple, especially due to his contract until 2031, but it places it on a very different economic scale than what was required for Rodri's arrival.

The next step will depend on the decision that Real Madrid makes once the future of the Spanish international is definitively confirmed. If Rodri ends up signing with Barcelona, Mokio will be one of the names that the club will consider for negotiating with Ajax.
