Arsenal rule out summer move for Real Madrid rising star | OneFootball

In recent days, speculation over Rodrygo’s future has only intensified, with Liverpool, in particular, accelerating their pursuit of the young forward.

The Reds are determined to bring in a new face in attack amid uncertainties over Luis Diaz’s future at the club.

Liverpool, therefore, are ready to do whatever it takes to sign Rodrygo. However, they are not the only Premier League club interested in the Real Madrid.

In recent weeks, Arsenal, too, have been linked with a move for the Brazilian international, who even reportedly harbours the dream of playing for the Gunners.

Arsenal won’t make Rodrygo move

However, a recent update from Anton Meana on Carrusel claims that Arsenal have closed the doors on a move for Rodrygo this summer.

It appears the arrival of Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres has significantly reduced the London club’s need for a new attacker.

The deal for Rodrygo has now become “very complicated” and that the door is essentially closed, at least for now.

Arsenal had previously shown interest, even fielding enquiries through the player’s entourage. But they could not wait for Real Madrid to put him on the market, and have moved on.

Real Madrid, for their part, are not actively looking to offload Rodrygo either. The club have set a price tag of €100 million.

While Liverpool have shown a lot of interest in recent days, it remains to be seen whether or not the Reds are ready to meet such a steep valuation, especially after spending a fortune on Florian Wirtz this summer.

Rodrygo, for his part, is not too keen on the idea of leaving Real Madrid as he truly loves the club. Therefore, it will be interesting to see how things transpire in the coming days.
