In a stunning twist that could define the beginning of Arne Slot’s reign at Anfield, Liverpool have made their move for Real Madrid superstar Rodrygo Goes. The Merseyside giants have submitted their first official bid and are locked in serious talks with Madrid, hoping to pull off one of the most sensational transfers of the summer.
Sources close to the deal confirm Rodrygo himself is tempted by the prospect of a Liverpool switch. In a private chat that has now emerged, he was candid:
“I would prefer a move to Liverpool than Manchester United. I know I’m appreciated at Real Madrid — and I love it — but I don’t want to be on the bench. I know my potential.
If Liverpool come for me, I’m open to joining them.”
Rodrygo’s honesty speaks volumes about the fierce competition in Madrid following Kylian Mbappé and Endrick’s arrivals. The Brazilian is a fan favorite at the Bernabéu but is determined to secure regular game time — something Arne Slot’s Liverpool can guarantee.
The 23-year-old has been a top target for the Reds for months, and with Slot ushering in the post-Klopp era, the Anfield hierarchy view him as a marquee signing. Rodrygo’s flair, creativity, and big-game pedigree make him a perfect fit for Liverpool’s high-energy, attacking style.
Talks between the two clubs are ongoing. Real Madrid remain reluctant to sell but could be tempted by a substantial offer.
If this happens, it’s not just a game-changer for Liverpool — it’s a transfer that would send shockwaves across Europe. This is what we’re talking about. Liverpool to the world! Bring him to Anfield — let’s show the Premier League
