After Real Madrid’s humiliating defeat to Arsenal, comparisons have been made to their infamous loss against Ajax at the Bernabéu years ago. And while the result itself was brutal, the real fallout might come off the pitch — with Rodrygo Goes possibly heading toward the exit door.

Liverpool Make a Move

According to reports, Liverpool have set their sights on Rodrygo as a potential long-term replacement for Mohamed Salah. With the Egyptian legend entering the twilight of his career, the Reds are exploring their next talisman — and Rodrygo fits the bill: young, fast, technical, and experienced at the highest level.

Florentino Pérez Won’t Block It

• President Florentino Pérez is not expected to resist a big-money offer.

• He sees Rodrygo as sellable, especially if the incoming fee is around the €100 million mark.

• While Rodrygo has improved this season, it hasn’t been enough to fully convince fans or the board.

Complications?

Liverpool are also monitoring Alexander Isak, which could complicate things. If they pivot to the Newcastle striker, it might lead to a lower offer for Rodrygo — one that Real Madrid might not accept.

Why It Matters

This transfer could signal a new era at Madrid. If Rodrygo leaves, the club could reinvest in a new winger or forward — maybe even Kylian Mbappé, whose name always looms around the Bernabéu.

Meanwhile, Rodrygo could reignite his career in the Premier League, where his profile is already admired. His pace and flair make him an ideal fit for Liverpool’s system under whoever leads them post-Klopp.

One thing is clear: Real Madrid are listening. And if Liverpool step up with the right bid, Rodrygo’s time in Spain could be over this summer.
