Liverpool would be willing to pay more than 40 million in order to sign the defender. Ordonez has been hailed as a huge talent. The Ecuador international is a tremendous talent with a bright future, and he could develop into a key player for Liverpool if they manage to sign him.
The 24-year-old is reported to have begun talks with "two top agents" amid hopes of accelerating his departure from the Bernabéu, but Los Blancos are unlikely to consider offers until the summer following the recent injury to striker Kylian Mbappé. Manchester City and Arsenal are said to be the two most likely destinations for Rodrygo, but Liverpool, who remain on the lookout for a long-term successor for Mohamed Salah, also can't be ruled out.
Joel Ordonez is an outstanding young defender, and it is safe to assume that he will be leaving Club Brugge in 2026. He is going to the World Cup finals next summer, and I am told that he is almost certain to have gone before that point. Chelsea and Villa are both long-term admirers of Ordonez, so no shock they are both posting scouts to keep tabs on his progress, and seeing him in action against an international-calibre strike force like Argentina is important.
