Arsenal and Liverpool are also interested in Rodrygo, but both are conditioned by money, respectively other transfers.
It's not a secret for a long time. Pep Guardiola is Fan Rodrygo and wants Brazilian at Manchester City. According to the Daily Mail tabloid, the manager of “citizens” is ready to rise to the level of Real Madrid's claims and prepared a package made up of 80 million euros, a fixed amount, plus 20 million in the form of performance bonuses.
Manchester City is in Pole Position, in the race for Rodrygo
Totally, 100 million euros, exactly the amount at which Madrid evaluated the Brazilian international. City is not alone in the race for Rodrygo, but Arsenal and Liverpool candidates are conditioned by money, respectively other transactions.
“Tunarii” would only allow Rodrygo in the form of a loan, given that the acquisitions of Gyökeres, Madueke, Nørgaard and Zubimedi dramatically thinned their transfer budget.. Liverpool, in a row, could only become active if it fails the transfer of Alexander Isak from Newcastle United.
Manchester City wants to sell Savinho before bringing Rodrygo
Manchester City, in a row, has to do a bit of “cleaning” on the left flank, before buying Rodrygo. Last year from Troyes, for about 35 million euros, Savino is about to transfer to Tottenham Hotspur.

Rodrygo? The Brazilian does not matter in the plans of Xabi Alonso and even wants to leave the real. But he stated that he has “only a transfer to a top club in Europe”. Otherwise, it will remain on Santiago Bernabeu.
