Arsenal want Rodrygo this summer. |
Nico Williams was Arsenal's priority for the left-back position. However, with Barca focusing all their efforts on completing the deal, the Gunners were forced to change their plans. According to AS , Arsenal are now determined to recruit Rodrygo.
Arsenal are targeting four positions including striker, central midfielder, centre-back and left winger. After recruiting Martin Zubimendi, they are looking to strengthen their attack. Rodrygo is considered the ideal solution for coach Mikel Arteta.
However, the deal is not easy. Despite spending nearly 700 million euros in the last four seasons, Arsenal currently has a strict wage control policy. Rodrygo's salary, around 7-8 million euros/year after tax, will put him in the highest income group of the team. Meanwhile, the Brazilian striker's transfer fee is also not less than 90 million euros.
Compared to Williams, Rodrygo is considered more versatile and more suitable for Arteta's philosophy. He can play on both wings and as a center forward, which Arsenal will need next season. Under Real, due to not being able to compete with Vinicius on the left wing, Rodrygo often had to move to the right.
Rodrygo is currently competing with Real Madrid in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup™ and has not made any moves to leave. However, his future at the Bernabeu remains a question mark as coach Xabi Alonso is considering major changes to the squad.
With his versatility, speed and technique, Rodrygo promises to be the next blockbuster on the market if Real decides to part ways. And Arsenal, in their ambition to compete for the Premier League title, certainly do not want to be left out of this race.
