Real Madrid has several open fronts in the remaining month of the transfer window, trying to finalize various departures in order to make another signing. The most notable case is Rodrygo Goes, for whom all paths seem to lead away from Santiago Bernabéu. At 24, he has a contract in force until 2028, but Xabi Alonso is clear that he doesn't count on him and has opened the door wide for him.
With three years left on his contract, Real Madrid is clear that they don't intend to sell him cheaply. He has a price tag close to €100 million, and of all the interested parties, only one club can pay it: Liverpool. Recently, the Reds have sold Luis Díaz, their left winger, and they seem to have shown a lot of interest in signing the Brazilian from Madrid.
As OKDiario has revealed, Arsenal and Tottenham's options have lost a lot of strength in recent days. The Gunners haven't made up their minds about him in the summer "mercatto," while the Spurs aren't an interesting option for the forward. As things stand, right now there are only two possibilities on the table for Rodrygo, whose future doesn't seem easy.
2 options for Rodrygo Goes: Liverpool or...
If Liverpool chooses to go all in for Isak and sets this possibility aside, the truth is that Rodrygo will have a very difficult time. The Brazilian would lose the only clear chance to leave, having to stay at Real Madrid to try to convince Xabi Alonso.
As we've pointed out before, he has a sufficient commitment ahead and Real Madrid has no intention of giving him away. For him to leave, one of the conditions is to sell him for at least €100 million (about $108 million), as this is the valuation set by Valdebebas.
The other condition set for Rodrygo to activate his departure is that he must formally request it from Florentino Pérez. So far, this conversation hasn't taken place, so Real Madrid is acting completely normally.
As things stand, the outlook seems complicated for a Rodrygo who doesn't feel comfortable at Real Madrid. If he can't get Liverpool to come forward with the money, Florentino won't hesitate and will keep the Brazilian, even if that means having him on the bench all season.
