Arsenal remain interested in securing a move for Rodrygo and could approach for his signature now that Eberechi Eze appears to be edging closer to a transfer to Tottenham. Both players have been on the radar of the Gunners as they consider making one final addition to their squad before the current transfer window closes.
Since the end of last season, Arsenal have believed there might be an opportunity to pursue Rodrygo, as the Brazilian’s role at Real Madrid has come under scrutiny. His prominence in the squad began to diminish, and that situation has not improved since Xabi Alonso took over as manager.
Arsenal Monitoring Opportunities
Rodrygo’s struggles for playing time were evident at the Club World Cup, where Alonso opted to rely on other options within his squad. This has fuelled speculation that the forward could be open to a new challenge, and Arsenal see him as a player who could add quality and depth to their attacking line. Any move, however, would likely depend on Arsenal selling some members of their current squad to raise the necessary funds.
For the Gunners, Rodrygo represents the calibre of signing that could further strengthen their push for silverware this season. His versatility and ability to operate across the front line would give Mikel Arteta greater tactical flexibility, while also adding proven quality from a player already established at the highest level.
Alonso’s Position on Rodrygo
Despite the speculation, Alonso has provided a fresh update that indicates he continues to trust the Brazilian. He said, as quoted in The Sun, “There are many rumours in the summer, but I’ve seen him well and I count on everyone. I count on Rodrygo for sure, 100 per cent.” This statement suggests that Rodrygo remains part of Madrid’s plans, even if his game time has been inconsistent.
Rodrygo is undoubtedly one of the most talented players in the Madrid squad, and his potential availability has caught the attention of clubs across Europe. For Arsenal, adding a player of his quality would represent a significant coup and could elevate their attacking options. Whether a deal materialises will depend on their ability to move quickly before the transfer window closes.
