Two Premier League clubs are still allegedly interested in Real Madrid forward Rodrygo.
The Brazil star is getting ready for his sixth season at Real Madrid, and he is already on his way to becoming a legend at the club.
In 216 games across all tournaments, he has scored 54 goals and set up 41 others. 23 of those games were in the 2023–24 La Liga and Champions League seasons.
Rodrygo has repeatedly said that he wants to play for Real Madrid, where he has a deal until 2028.
Even so, Kylian Mbappe's arrival from Paris Saint-Germain means he might play less, based on how Carlo Ancelotti sets up the team in the final third.
According to Mundo Deportivo, both the player and Real Madrid say that the player will not be leaving the club this summer.
That seems like a situation that works for everyone, and Real only thinks that will change if they get an offer they can't refuse.
In the same claim, it is said that Liverpool and Manchester City are "appearing in the English media" as competitors to sign the 23-year-old.
Arne Slot has yet to make his first signing as Liverpool manager, and the long-term fate of several important players is still uncertain.
Rodrygo will likely be seen as a direct replacement for Mohamed Salah if a Saudi Pro League team wants to make an offer in the next few weeks.
Salah might not take any offer, but Rodrygo would be the best replacement if Liverpool were pushed to make a bid.
Can Man City make a move?
Should Julian Alvarez's move to Atletico Madrid go through, Pep Guardiola will have much money to spend on a new forward.
Guardiola has said that City is thinking about what to do about the sure departure of someone they saw as the perfect replacement for Erling Haaland.
Rodrygo and Alvarez are not the same players, and the 82 million pounds made from the sale of the Argentine international will not be enough to buy the Real star.
On the other hand, City is in good standing with the Premier League's Profit and Sustainability rules thanks to a string of homegrown sales in recent weeks.
