"I was speaking to his camp in Madrid I'm told that Vinicius and Mbappe, who we did a story about a few weeks ago, encouraging him to stay, played a huge part in his decision. His teammates really put their arms around him and said, Look, you're a massive player here. You don't need to leave.' He's decided to stay until January, but we'll need to keep an eye on his situation."
"Both Arsenal and Manchester City could use more depth in the attacking unit, and Rodrygo would be the ideal acquisition. He is capable of operating anywhere across the front three, and he will add goals and creativity to the side. The player is still relatively young, and he could improve with coaching and experience. He has the attributes to develop into a top-class player."
Rodrygo Goes remained at Real Madrid after strong summer transfer interest but will reassess his future in January. Teammates, reportedly including Vinicius and Mbappe, persuaded him to stay by stressing his importance to the squad. Arsenal and Manchester City were interested during the summer and remain potential suitors if a January move becomes possible. Rodrygo can play across the front three, bringing goals and creativity, and still has time to develop with coaching and experience. Regular playing time will be critical for his 2026 World Cup ambitions and for decisions about a potential move.
