Arsenal and Liverpool are waking to a prospect too tempting to ignore.
Reportedly, Real Madrid winger Rodrygo is circling an exit. His minutes have dwindled. The spotlight now glints on London and Merseyside.
Liverpool, driven by the need to reinvigorate after selling Luis Díaz, are quietly confident — they’ve made contact and feel the Brazilian is 90 percent certain to leave this summer as per Football Talk | Premier League News.
Simultaneously, Arsenal have reignited their pursuit. Exploratory talks began back in earlier, and their interest remains genuine, with Real Madrid, as reported by TBRFootball, open and asking around £84 million.
The sense of urgency is palpable: both clubs sense an opportunity shimmering just within reach.
It’s not just a tug-of-war between clubs. Rodrygo’s own frustration—stuck out wide, blocked by Vinícius and others—fuels the drama.
Liverpool’s clear, active pursuit contrasts with Arsenal’s cautious but eager approach.
Now—this is the crack in the story: beyond the Gunners and the Reds, Bayern, Chelsea, PSG and Tottenham hover in the wings, each calculating their strike, each aware that hesitation could mean losing him for years to a rival.
Liverpool, in need of pace and unpredictability. Arsenal, hungry for flair and depth. Rodrygo craves space and significance—who will give him that stage, and at what price?
The next act is imminent. Offers will be tabled. Loyalties tested. Deals will be made. Hearts will race.
