What’s Actually Going On
1. Real Madrid’s Stance & Price Tag
- Real Madrid would consider selling Rodrygo only if an offer in the €90–100 million range arrives (Tribuna.com, SI, PSG Talk).
- As of now, no official bids have been made, and Liverpool is among several clubs—alongside Manchester City, Arsenal, and PSG—monitoring the situation (Foot Africa, Tribuna.com, Managing Madrid, The Sun, Talksport).
2. Rodrygo’s Own Position
- Despite speculation, Rodrygo appears committed to staying at Real Madrid. He remains under contract until 2028, and there’s no verified indication he has pushed for a move (Cadena SER, Foot Africa, Reddit).
- In fact, some reports suggest that Xabi Alonso sees him as an important part of the squad, which may influence his decision to stay (SI, Cadena SER).
3. Is Liverpool Really in the Race?
- Media speculation has linked Liverpool to Rodrygo for some time. One outlet even mentioned that he regards Anfield as a preferred destination if he does leave (The Sun). However, this remains unconfirmed and based on rumor.
- No club, including Liverpool, has made a formal approach yet (Foot Africa, Managing Madrid, The Sun).

Final Thoughts
