With the Brazilian forward frustrated by a bit-part role and creating “unnecessary tension,” the new manager is ready to cash in and reshape his squad.
In a significant shift at the Santiago Bernabéu, Real Madrid head coach Xabi Alonso is reportedly prepared to accept offers for Brazilian forward Rodrygo, with Arsenal leading the charge from the Premier League with a substantial bid.
According to reports from Spain, the Gunners, along with rivals Tottenham and Manchester City, have submitted an offer totaling €60 million, with an additional €20 million in achievable add-ons. This move comes as Rodrygo has found himself on the fringes of the team, starting only three games this season under Alonso and growing increasingly frustrated with his limited role.
The 24-year-old’s dissatisfaction is now seen as a key factor in the potential sale. Internal sources indicate that his frustration has created “unnecessary tension” within the dressing room. Alonso is said to believe that the Brazilian has not yet cemented himself as a decisive player in crucial matches and that his departure would ease squad tensions, reinforce the manager’s authority, and free up funds to reinvest in other priority positions.
While Chelsea and Tottenham have also been heavily linked with the star, it is Arsenal, managed by Mikel Arteta, who have formally stepped forward with a concrete offer. For Alonso and the Madrid hierarchy, the message is clear: their project is not dependent on Rodrygo, and a substantial bid for a unsettled player represents a logical step in the club’s transition.
