Real Madrid sell Rodrygo for record price

The Bernabeu club is ready to let the Brazilian striker leave in this summer's transfer window.

According to Cadena SER , €80 million is the asking price for any team that wants to sign Rodrygo next season. With a fee of €80 million, Rodrygo could become the most expensive sale of a South American player in Real Madrid's history, breaking the record held by Angel Di Maria when he joined Man Utd for €75 million in 2014.

In addition, Rodrgyo could also become the second most expensive player sale in the history of the Madrid team, only behind Cristiano Ronaldo's move to Juventus for 117 million euros in the summer of 2018.

According to the British press, Arsenal is eager to negotiate the signing of Rodrygo. Coach Mikel Arteta is looking for a quality winger to strengthen the squad for next season, especially when the Gunners aim to compete for the Premier League title and go far in the Champions League. In the shortlist, Rodrygo emerged as one of the leading candidates alongside Nico Williams (Athletic Bilbao).

Real Madrid are asking for an exorbitant price for Rodrygo.

Rodrygo's representatives have begun scouting the market to gauge interest from major clubs, including two Premier League sides, including Arsenal.

Rodrygo is 24 years old. He joined Real Madrid from Santos in 2018 for a fee of 45 million euros. The Brazilian has won 13 titles, including 3 La Liga and 2 Champions Leagues, and is currently under contract with the royal team until 2028. Rodrygo's biggest advantage is his versatility, he can play well on both wings, which is especially suitable for Arteta's flexible attacking scheme.

However, Real Madrid's participation in the Club World Cup next June could mean any deal involving Rodrygo will have to wait until August to be completed.
