Real Madrid is planning the squad for the next season and, as of today, there are several uncertainties on the table. What nobody expected is that Atlético could take care of resolving one sooner than desired. We are talking about the possible departure of Rodrygo Goes, who hasn't fully exploded at Santiago Bernabéu and whose status could change with the arrival of Xabi Alonso.
Alfredo Duro surprises: Atlético wants Rodrygo Goes
In the latest episode of El Chiringuito, Alfredo Duro dropped the bomb. Atlético has shown interest in signing the Brazilian forward, trying to reach an agreement for his transfer from Real Madrid.
"Someone from Arsenal proposed their idea about Rodrygo to Real Madrid during the Champions League tie they had. But, there is another team that, for now, hasn't approached Real Madrid, although they are convinced that Rodrygo wants to leave. In all the offensive plans for the next season, the first one that appears is Rodrygo, whom everyone loves. They would be willing to pay 80 million euros for the signing, and the team is Atlético de Madrid. They love Rodrygo as a complementary player to Julián Álvarez and Sorloth," stated Alfredo Duro.
Real Madrid doesn't negotiate betrayals
Madrid-Barcelona has learned that there will be no negotiation with Atlético. Neither for Rodrygo Goes nor for any other player in the squad. Florentino is clear that betrayals are not negotiated, and heading to the colchonero team, they would only leave by paying their release clause. And the Brazilian's is set at 1 billion euros.
There is no possibility that Rodrygo Goes will leave Real Madrid to go to Atlético, and right now everything seems to indicate that he will stay at Bernabéu. He hopes to convince the new coach during the Club World Cup, although he knows he has a difficult fit in his playing system.
Speaking with the forward's entourage, they deny to Madrid-Barcelona knowing anything about a hypothetical proposal from Atlético, indicating that they have only been called from England. If he leaves Real Madrid, Rodrygo Goes would aim for a future in the Premier League.
