Speculation continues around Rodrygo's future with Premier League clubs monitoring his situation closely. Real Madrid remain unconvinced the 24-year-old would be willing to move to Newcastle United despite Magpies' interest. Newcastle have been linked throughout the summer, but no formal bid has been placed. Rodrygo has seen limited playing time under manager Xabi Alonso, increasing transfer speculation. Real Madrid initially sought around €100 million but could soften to about €60 million if an offer arrives late in the window. Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur are watching developments, with Arsenal considering a loan-to-buy and Liverpool evaluating alternatives to Alexander Isak. Rodrygo reportedly prefers a Champions League-contending club.
Reports from Spanish journalist Guillem Balague suggest that Real Madrid remain unconvinced the 24-year-old would be open to a move to Newcastle United, even if the Magpies were to step up their long-standing interest. While Newcastle have been linked with Rodrygo throughout the summer, no formal bid has been placed. The Brazilian attacker has seen little playing time under new manager Xabi Alonso and that has increased speculation about his future, linking him with a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu.
Real Madrid's initial stance was to demand around 100 million, but insiders believe the La Liga giants could soften their stance if an offer in the region of 60 million arrives late in the window. Such a fee would represent a significant discount, particularly given Rodrygo's Champions League pedigree and the fact that he has often been relied upon in high-pressure matches at Real madrid.
The uncertainty has alerted several Premier League clubs. Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Tottenham Hotspur are all keeping a close eye on developments. Despite their admiration, none of these clubs have yet taken concrete steps to test Madrid's resolve. Arsenal reportedly considered a loan-to-buy approach earlier in the summer, while Liverpool are understood to be evaluating their options should they fail in their pursuit of Alexander Isak.
