In the last few days, Rodrygo Goes has fuelled speculation about his future as a Real Madrid player, having left his situation open going into the summer. The 23-year-old could lose his place in the starting line-up next season when Kylian Mbappe arrives, and that may lead to a new challenge being pursued.

If Rodrygo were to want to leave Real Madrid, he’d undoubtedly have plenty of suitors vying for his signature. One of them would be Manchester City, who are eyeing up a blockbuster move for the Brazilian international, as reported by Marca.
Pep Guardiola considers Rodrygo to be an “attractive player”, and with uncertainty surrounding the futures of Bernardo Silva and Jack Grealish at Man City, a replacement could be sought, despite the impending arrival of Savio, who was outstanding for Girona last season.
Real Madrid have taken a strong stance on Rodrygo’s situation: they want him to stay. Club officials are relaxed about the situation, especially as the player himself is still happy in the Spanish capital. However, this could be one to keep an eye on depending on how Mbappe is utilised from next season onwards.
