Arsenal has become the latest club to enter the race to sign Real Madrid star Rodrygo during the upcoming summer transfer window.
The Brazilian international’s departure from the club is imminent after the player complained of being marginalized and then facing a recent benching.
According to Sky Sports, behind-the-scenes talks between Arsenal officials and Rodrygo’s representatives have begun in recent days, but no agreement has been reached yet.
Arsenal officials are aware that securing the services of the 24-year-old will not be easy, but at the same time, they do not want to miss the opportunity to acquire one of the most important players in the world.
Manchester City is the club most interested in signing Rodrygo, and negotiations between the two parties are believed to have been ongoing for months.
In recent days, it has been reported that Chelsea has also explored the possibility of signing Rodrygo, but without submitting an official offer for the player yet.
Real Madrid would be open to selling Rodrygo if a substantial financial offer were received, and initially, Los Blancos hope to secure at least €70 million for their Brazilian star.
