Brazilian forward Rodrygo, formerly on Arsenal’s radar, may be contemplating his future at Real Madrid if his first-team opportunities fail to improve. This follows a summer of intense speculation, prompted by the 24-year-old’s dwindling presence at the Bernabeu. Rather than bringing Rodrygo into their ranks, Arsenal decided to invest £67.5 million in procuring Eberechi Eze from Crystal Palace.
Despite this, uncertainties continue to loom over Rodrygo’s career trajectory. The talented winger, under the stewardship of newly appointed manager Xabi Alonso, has been limited to a solitary starting appearance this season. According to reports from TeamTalk, Rodrygo is contemplating a January exit from the Spanish capital if his situation remains unchanged and game time remains elusive.
Alonso, who has openly addressed Rodrygo’s situation, acknowledged the player’s unrest before the commencement of the summer transfer window. In a candid admission, Alonso stated: “I am aware of the struggles he faced towards the end of last season. It was a challenging period for him, and it understandably took time for him to regain his focus. However, I now see a player eager to contribute and derive joy from his football once more.”
Should Rodrygo seek greener pastures come January, it would undoubtedly reignite interest from top European clubs, eager to capitalise on any opportunity to secure his signature.
