Arsenal have officially secured Real Madrid star Rodrygo! The 23-year-old winger is set to make a major impact in the Premier League after Real Madrid decided to cash in. ๐Ÿ’ฐโšฝ

Arsenal are reportedly leading the race to secure the signing of Real Madrid star Rodrygo, according to the Spanish outlet Fichajes. The 23-year-old Brazilian winger, who joined Los Blancos from Santos in 2018, has enjoyed a successful stint at the Estadio Santiago Bernabรฉu, winning two Champions League titles, multiple league championships, and several other prestigious trophies.

Despite establishing himself as a vital part of Real Madridโ€™s squad, Rodrygoโ€™s future has come under scrutiny with the recent arrival of Kylian Mbappรฉ, sparking speculation about his potential departure. Fichajes suggests that Rodrygo is increasingly likely to leave, with Arsenal positioned as frontrunners for his signature in the Premier League.

 

Real Madrid is prepared to cash in on the Brazilian if a substantial offer is made, having previously sought around ยฃ134 million for his transfer during the summer window. Currently under contract until 2028, Real Madrid is in a strong position to demand a hefty fee, particularly as interest in Rodrygo grows, especially from clubs like Liverpool

.

Rodrygoโ€™s versatility allows him to play across the frontline, though he prefers the left flank. However, opportunities in that position have been limited at Real Madrid due to the presence of Vinรญcius Jr. Nonetheless, his high potential makes him a desirable target for Arsenal, who are keen to enhance their squad.

 

Meanwhile, after a disappointing 2-0 defeat to AFC Bournemouth in the Premier League, Arsenal bounced back with a convincing win over Shakhtar Donetsk in the Champions League.

Mikel Artetaโ€™s side is now set to face title rivals Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium this weekend, eager to secure three points to close the gap at the top of the table.
