Rodrygo asks Saudi Arabia for a $350M favor, it's the best solution for everyone

Major moves are approaching at Real Madrid and Saudi Arabia could play a decisive role

Against all odds, Rodrygo has become a very useful piece for Xabi Alonso at Real Madrid. The Brazilian, who was very close to being transferred in the summer, has ended up finding his place in the team. Despite the rumors, his commitment and attitude have kept him in the white locker room.

His last season with Ancelotti left more shadows than lights and fueled doubts about his continuity. However, Rodrygo decided to resist the reports that placed him far from Bernabéu and is showing that he can contribute a lot to the white project. It's true that he isn't a starter, but he has accepted his role as a game-changer with professionalism and character, which is a plus for the team.

Rodrygo, the silent alternative at Real Madrid

Although his current role doesn't guarantee him regular minutes, Rodrygo just keeps working without raising his voice. Every time Xabi Alonso needs him, the Brazilian responds with energy and commitment. In a locker room where competition is fierce, his ability to adapt has been key to keeping his place at Real Madrid.

Nevertheless, it's clear that Rodrygo dreams of having a more relevant role. His desire to feel like a protagonist at Bernabéu remains intact. That dream could come true sooner than desired if Saudi Arabia makes a monumental offer that would change the balance of the white attack.

Saudi Arabia could do Rodrygo a huge favor

In front of Rodrygo is Vinícius Júnior, a key piece for Real Madrid, but who is always surrounded by controversy. After what was seen in the last Clásico, the relationship between Vinícius and Xabi Alonso seems completely broken. That tension has opened the door to a departure that, a few months ago, seemed unthinkable at Real Madrid.

Florentino Pérez isn't considering giving away his star, but if an astronomical proposal arrives, anything can happen. In this sense, we can confirm that Vinícius Júnior is being tempted from Saudi Arabia with offers close to €350 million (about $380 million). A figure that would make history in the market and would put an end to Vinícius's time at Bernabéu.

A golden opportunity for Rodrygo

If Saudi Arabia's interest materializes, the main beneficiary would be Rodrygo. Vinícius Júnior, his main competitor for a starting spot, would leave the team and he could take the place he has always wanted at Real Madrid. It would be the perfect chance to become a starter and establish himself in Xabi Alonso's project.

For the club, selling Vinícius would be a strategic move that would ease the accounts and open up space for a hungry player like Rodrygo. Saudi Arabia would get a global superstar and Real Madrid, a record financial balance. In this scenario, all roads lead to a solution that seems to benefit all three parties.
