UEFA Europa League
Rodrygo Goes has set a clear condition to consider his departure from Real Madrid: a contract of 12 million euros net per season. This salary demand, which would place him among the highest paid in European football, has already caused tension among the clubs that have been closely following his situation, especially Arsenal, who have renewed their interest in him after a season of ups and downs.
The Brazilian forward has not had his best season. Since February, his numbers have clearly declined: just one goal and three assists have raised doubts about his role in Xabi Alonso's new project. However, the Basque coach trusts him and has decided to include him in the squad competing in the Club World Cup, where the Brazilian will have the opportunity to show that he can still be decisive.
Arsenal, the top contender to sign Rodrygo
From England, Arsenal is closely monitoring his progress. The London team is close to securing the arrival of Martín Zubimendi and is also looking for a top-quality offensive reinforcement. Rodrygo is one of the names that Mikel Arteta likes, although his price—around 75 million euros—and, above all, his high economic demands complicate the operation.
The salary policy of the North London club has been strict, and increasing the salary average of the squad is not a decision taken lightly. For now, the Brazilian's request seems out of reach for Arsenal, which prioritizes financial sustainability.
Rodrygo wants to stay in Madrid, but if the club decides to sell him, the scenario appears complicated. The player's desire clashes directly with the figures handled by his suitors. The summer will be decisive in determining his fate.
