In a potentially game-changing move for Liverpool’s attacking setup, discussions have reportedly occurred in the past 48 hours between the club and representatives of Real Madrid forward Rodrygo Goes. The Brazilian international is said to be open to a transfer to Anfield this summer, and Liverpoolβs interest in securing his signature is accelerating behind the scenes.
New head coach Arne Slot, currently managing a significant squad overhaul in his first transfer window, has made Rodrygo one of his main targets. Slot is reportedly a strong admirer of the 23-year-oldβs technical skill, versatility, and tactical intelligence β attributes that fit seamlessly with his vision for the next chapter at Liverpool.
Trusted sources indicate that Slot has given the green light to pursue Rodrygo, viewing him as the ideal successor to Luis DΓaz, who is widely expected to depart the club during the current window. DΓaz has attracted major interest from top clubs in both Spain and Saudi Arabia, and Liverpool are preparing for his likely exit by positioning Rodrygo as their marquee replacement.
Rodrygo played a pivotal role in Real Madridβs La Liga and Champions League triumphs last season, but his future in Madrid has become uncertain following the arrivals of Kylian MbappΓ© and Endrick. With playing time set to diminish, the forward is believed to be considering a new challenge β and Liverpoolβs emerging project under Slot could be an appealing destination.
Although no official bid has been made yet, talks are reportedly advancing in a positive direction. Real Madrid are expected to demand a substantial transfer fee, but Liverpool are prepared to make a significant investment for the right player as they look to reclaim domestic and European dominance.
Should the deal materialize, it would send a strong message across the Premier League and mark a bold statement of intent for Liverpoolβs post-JΓΌrgen Klopp era. Further updates are anticipated as negotiations continue discreetly.
