- Arsenal end pursuit of Real Madrid estrella Rodrygo
- Gunners focus on Gyokeres and Madueke instead
- Liverpool handed clear path to land Brazilian forward
Arsenal were previously in talks with Rodrygo’s camp after showing interest in a big-money move. However, Spanish outlet Cadena Ser now report that the Gunners have dropped out due to complications in the deal. Instead, Mikel Arteta’s side are pursuing Madueke and Gyokeres to reinforce their attack.
Rodrygo’s future at Real Madrid has been uncertain since the arrival of Kylian Mbappe and Gonzalo Garcia’s rise. Arsenal were keen to act quickly, but the forward’s price tag and availability created issues. Liverpool could now take advantage of Arsenal’s withdrawal to step up their own pursuit.
Liverpool are showing interest in Rodrygo over a summer move as they are expecting the departure of Darwin Nunez and potentially Luis Diaz, who has invited interest from Bayern Múnich y Barcelona.
Arsenal are expected to finalise both of their attacking signings in the coming weeks. As such, Liverpool may accelerate talks with Rodrygo’s camp, seeing a rare opportunity in the market. Real Madrid will monitor developments as they reshape their forward line for next season. Rodrygo now faces a decision: stay at Madrid or consider a summer move to Liverpool.
