Despite swirling transfer rumors and increasing interest from clubs like Arsenal, Chelsea, and Manchester City, Rodrygo Silva de Goes is determined to stay at Real Madrid, according to the player himself and club insiders.
Rodrygo stands firm at Real Madrid amid Premier League transfer buzz
Premier League sides have intensified their surveillance this summer. Arsenal reportedly view the Brazilian as their “dream” signing, while Manchester City are currently favored in betting markets to land him.
Though his agent has contacted several English clubs, Real Madrid have slapped a hefty €80–100 million price tag on their forward.
Yet, Madrid have not received any formal offers yet, and Rodrygo has made it abundantly clear: he’s not pushing for a move. His long-term contract runs until June 2028, offering him both stability and peace of mind .
Under their new head coach, Xabi Alonso, Real Madrid are conducting individual discussions with each player—including Rodrygo—to align squad strategy and roles.
In his unveiling press conference, Alonso emphasized, “Rodrygo is a spectacular player—and we will need him. I will talk to everyone.”
Rodrygo has reportedly set two key conditions to secure his future: a more central role in the team and regular deployment on the left wing.
With Mbappe and Vinícius Junior anchoring that flank, the player appears to be waiting for Alonso to confirm whether he can fit into the new system.
