Manager Xabi Alonso when he took over Real Madrid a few days ago had his first conversation with club president Florentino Pérez was Rodrygo Goes’ topic.
Alonso, who came from extreme and unexpected success with Bayer Leverkusen, wanted Rodrygo Goes to stay, while Florentino Pérez thought the attack was complete and that a sale was the best.
Rodrygo, one of the young talents on the white team, is attracting a lot of interest from Saudi Arabia. Two of the country’s most important clubs, Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal, have put a huge bid on the table to secure the 24-year-old striker.

The amount being discussed is staggering: 130 million euros. A significant sum that shows the ambitions and economic power that is growing in Saudi Arabian football. These clubs are willing to fight each other to secure a player who has shown great quality and has great potential for further development.
Rodrygo is not happy at Real Madrid
Rodrygo has been a key player for Real Madrid, with important goals and assists, but the interest from these teams comes with an offer that is hard to refuse for any club – especially for a young player who could seize the opportunity for a new experience and development in a football environment that is gaining international ground.

Real Madrid are now facing an important decision. On the one hand, they know that Rodrygo can be crucial in their future plans, something Xabi Alonso has been clear about, but on the other hand, the financial offer is very tempting. In addition, the competition between Al-Nassr and Al-Hilal could speed up a possible transfer.
Currently, the negotiations are ongoing, and nothing has been confirmed. Real Madrid’s fans are eagerly watching what could develop in the coming weeks. This topic will undoubtedly create a lot of debate and could change the direction of one of the white club’s most important projects.
