During the summer transfer window, Rodrygo was expected to leave Real Madrid having fallen down the pecking order at the Santiago Bernabeu. Arsenal wanted him, as did Tottenham, Man City and Liverpool, but ultimately he didn’t make a move, but things could be different now.
Rodrygo is increasingly open to leaving Real Madrid
Rodrygo has continued to battle for fame at Real Madrid this season, and according to Graeme Bailey (via TBR Football) he is increasingly open to a departure in 2026, which is good news for the still interested Arsenal and Tottenham.
“Rodrygo’s situation has not improved this season. As we reported in the summer, Xabi Alonso always intended to make Arda Guler one of his key figures, and that has worked out as expected. With teenage star Franco Mastantuono also getting regular playing time, there is little sign of Rodrygo finding a route back into the line-up.”
“I have been told that Rodrygo is reconsidering his options, and one possibility is a move to the Premier League, which could become a viable option in January. He is certainly one to watch as we approach the new year.”
This season is important for Rodrygo, who is eyeing a starting spot for Brazil at the 2026 World Cup. He’s unlikely to get that if he continues to play second fiddle to the likes of Vinicius Junior and Franco Mastantuono at Real Madrid, so there is certainly room for him to consider leaving when the transfer window reopens in January.
