As the summer transfer window draws closer, Arsenal’s interest in Real Madrid winger Rodrygo has taken center stage following his emotional hint at an exit. The Brazilian forward’s message has fueled speculation that he could be next out the door after Luka Modric’s confirmed departure from the Santiago Bernabéu.
Mikel Arteta is preparing for a crucial off-season, where the priority is to reshape his squad into a stronger Premier League and Champions League contender. While Manchester City faltered this past campaign, Arsenal couldn’t capitalize, ultimately allowing Liverpool to reclaim top honors.
With Rodrygo’s future now in question, Arsenal may be in a prime position to pounce. Real Madrid’s openness to negotiation, especially with Kylian Mbappé’s impending arrival potentially pushing Rodrygo down the pecking order, gives the Gunners an edge. Reports suggest a price tag has already been set, and Arsenal could be among the first to trigger the deal.
Rodrygo’s exit talk hasn’t gone unnoticed by other clubs eitherChelsea and a few Premier League rivals are reportedly monitoring the situation closely. Still, Arteta’s desire to bring the 23-year-old to North London could make the Emirates Stadium the Brazilian’s next destination.
