Real Madrid has already set a price for Liverpool's big dream, he's Salah's replacement

Real Madrid usually doesn't make big headlines during the different transfer windows. While the white club spent many years pursuing Mbappé, once they've achieved it, Florentino Pérez has already become a secondary player in the transfer windows. This summer, they've made several signings, but none of them are world-class, with the exception of Alexander-Arnold, nor have they caused many weeks of rumors.

But for next summer, a period of changes is approaching at Real Madrid. There are many players who, in principle, were supposed to be important, who aren't performing as Xabi Alonso would desire. That's why a summer market with possible movement in the offices on Castellana is looming.

Major clubs in Europe are licking their lips at Real Madrid's new reality and know that in the summer of 2026, it'll be more possible than ever to steal in Madrid. Florentino Pérez knows it and has already set an asking price for one of his best assets.

Rodrygo, an interesting sale

Rodrygo has moved into a secondary role that now seems insurmountable. Many media outlets are already predicting that this could be his last season in white. Of course, with this in mind, many teams are considering signing him.

One of those doing so is Liverpool, which expects another summer full of movement. They've already made major signings this year, with more than 450 million invested, but the new additions aren't working. To make matters worse, Mo Salah is no longer what he used to be and there's a high chance that he'll leave Anfield in July.

That's why the outlet Gol Digital has stated that one of the main goals of the current Premier League champions is to sign Rodrygo. This same portal also reports that Real Madrid, aware of this, has already set a price for the Brazilian star.

Rodrygo is worth 85 million

Analyzing his current level, it might seem a bit expensive. However, we've already seen how at Anfield they have no problem opening the checkbook and paying high amounts if they set their sights on a footballer. There is a lot of desire for Rodrygo.

Real Madrid's "11" is playing this season as Vinícius's backup on the left wing. He's even had to switch wings to get some minutes from time to time. On the right, Franco Mastantuono has taken his spot; Brahim Díaz is also there, and occasionally Arda Güler.

Mo Salah plays on his natural wing, so if Liverpool decided to sign him, at Anfield he would indeed start from his favorite side. There, Rodrygo could regain the starring role he's now lost at Real Madrid. Therefore, although for now it's just a rumor, it doesn't seem like an entirely unthinkable move.

The pieces of the puzzle fit. Of course, it would be a more than interesting move for the whites to pocket 85 million for a backup like Rodrygo.
