Neither Liverpool nor Tottenham, Rodrygo has another team that will pay €100M: 'Sell now'

Rodrygo forgets about Liverpool and Tottenham and will sign for another major team in the coming days

Real Madrid is just over a week away from making their debut in LaLiga, so Rodrygo's departure is becoming a hot topic that needs a solution. Rodrygo isn't part of Xabi Alonso's plans and Madrid's idea is to sell him in this transfer window: the Brazilian will leave and bring in close to €100 million. Liverpool and Tottenham have been two of the clubs most interested in Rodrygo, but in the end, the Brazilian will leave Madrid to sign for another European giant.

Rodrygo has many offers to leave Madrid, but he has finally chosen one that will surprise everyone. While the vast majority of Madridists thought Rodrygo would leave for Liverpool or Tottenham, the Carioca forward has made a very surprising decision: goodbye to Spanish LaLiga. Xabi Alonso doesn't count on Rodrygo and has told him so in recent hours: meanwhile, Florentino Pérez wants to use the winger to make money.

It should be remembered that Madrid has spent a lot of money on signings in this summer transfer window, so the sale of Rodrygo has become important. Florentino Pérez is willing to let Rodrygo leave before the official start of the season, but he has already told him he wants him to bring an offer of about €100M. Liverpool and Tottenham were interested in Rodrygo, but they couldn't reach an amount that, now, another European giant will pay: €100M ready, they want to sign Rodrygo right now.

Xabi Alonso wants to finalize the squad and, for that, he needs Rodrygo to pack his bags once and for all. Florentino Pérez has been very clear and direct with Rodrygo, who has gotten the message: he'll only leave Madrid if a €100 million transfer offer arrives. Madrid doesn't count on Rodrygo, but they also don't want to sell cheaply a player who has a market and a contract in force until 2028.

Rodrygo had advanced offers from Liverpool and Tottenham, but in the end, neither of these two options will happen. Liverpool has ruled out signing Rodrygo, while Tottenham are working on signing Savinho, another Brazilian winger, but in this case, he plays for Manchester City. In fact, Savinho's departure shows that Pep Guardiola has an "ace" up his sleeve: he wants to go all in for Rodrygo and he could be his big signing this summer.

If nothing goes wrong, Rodrygo is close to signing for Pep Guardiola's Manchester City. Guardiola has said goodbye to Savinho, a winger who played for Girona and signed for City this past summer, because he wants to have Rodrygo, who will leave Madrid. The best part is that City, unlike Liverpool and Tottenham, have committed to paying about €100 million for Rodrygo, so Madrid are smiling.

Madrid are willing to accept Manchester City's offer, especially because they want to start having good relations with the English club. It should be noted that Madrid want to sign Rodri, the Spanish midfielder, so getting closer now will be key for the immediate future. Meanwhile, Rodrygo has everything agreed on personal terms with City: deal closed, all that's left is for this new bomb of the summer transfer window to be completed.
