The Brazilian striker could leave the Santiago Bernabéu in the summer window.
Chelsea are betting high in the upcoming transfer window: They want Rodrygo Goes as their star addition and are willing to put €120 million on the table to sign him from Real Madrid.
AS writes that the London-based club sees in the Brazilian the offensive leader they need to breathe new life into the project under the leadership of Enzo Maresca, who is already planning an ambitious attack with Cole Palmer and Nico Jackson as key players.

Rodrygo, 23, has had an impressive season with the Whites, scoring 13 goals and providing 9 assists in 44 appearances. However, the increasing competition in Madrid’s attack – with Vinícius and Kylian Mbappé as the main stars – has meant that his role in the team has been somewhat variable. This is something Chelsea want to exploit to entice the player with guaranteed playing time and a customized development plan.
Chelsea want to sign Rodrygo Goes
The striker has a contract with Madrid until 2028, but Chelsea believe that a significant financial offer – both to the club and the player – could pave the way for one of the most spectacular transfers of the summer window. In addition, the English club expects to qualify for European play, which gives Maresca’s project extra weight.
Chelsea are aware of the need to bolster their squad with proven talent, and they are sparing no effort to position themselves among Europe’s elite again. The eventual arrival of Rodrygo will not only be a sporting signal, but also a clear message that “The Blues” are ready to compete with the best.
If the Brazilian puts on the blue shirt, summer promises exciting times in London.
