🚧 Road appears to have closed 🚧 Rodrygo

[MikelHadADream]

Yeah but no impact to us with a dry loan.

Why would you dry loan a 17 year old that likely wouldn’t get a game?

Madrid would of shut this down if they weren't completely open to letting him go. Why have speculation follow them through a tournament? They just need him to stay calm until the CWC finishes so they have the best chances of winning it.

Or they are not in need for him to leave. But if someone offers crazy money why not. But I don’t think he would want to come here anyway

Its a low cost gamble as Ødegaard backup. You never know, he didn't look out of place at all for Brazil amongst Rodrygo, Vini etc in their WCQ.

Don't forget, amongst so many Real Madrid stars and a deeper squad than us, he managed 37 apps last year for them. Even Guler that was rated higher here didn't manage that many apps. He will 100% play a good part for us.

And he already have 14 caps for Brazil at the age of 18. That's insane.

It is interesting, because you think with the signing of Mastantuono they are going to have to let one of Rodrygo, Guler, or Endrick go. It seems like Rodrygo is the odd man out at his old age (in comparison to the babies).

This one ain't happening unless we sell marti

It’ll be Rodrygo because apparently they rate Guler very high internally and he’s still so young you’re not pressured to start him too much and throw off your balance. Could eventually be the replacement for Mbappe as he’s 6 years younger.

He’d be happy with first change and a semi regular starting role.

Rodrygo though is in his prime and it makes no sense for him or them from a numbers perspective to keep him imo.

I could see Rodrygo having a Gabriel Jesus like impact for us. GJ completely raised our level in attack and we've been missing a player like him ever since his injury troubles started.

I could also see him getting hacked down, picking up loads of injuries and not being able to physically cope with the PL. Like Gabriel Jesus.

 

[Flying Okapis]

Keep seeing this but it all depends on Alonso convincing Mbappe to abandon striker and Vinicius shuffle to the right.

Personally think they should just stack the midfield and play Jude as a false 9 again. Far more balanced.

I'm not sure if I'm imagining this, but didn't Mbappe state at some point that he also prefers to play at LW..?

 

[El Duderino]

No point in giving them Kai, as he's bound to be hounded out by the Madrid putting pressure on Florentino.

Then we would resign him on loan anyway, so might as well skip the extra step and keep him here.

You guys know when the first post season start international break for qualifiers?

Only way I see him moving is if he's left out of next call up, while not getting much playing time regardless of the position Alonso deploys him in.

First weekend in September when transfer window will be already closed.
Why Ancelotti didn't call him for qualifiers earlier this month?

Totally agreed, right now, in terms of attack, this really seems like one of the most realistic options. Madrid and Rodrygo just need to both get on the same page, hopefully that doesn't take much longer.

No chance Ancelotti leaves him out, he loves him.

Instant cop at that price.

Think he was injured or coming back from injury? Honestly don't know.

He was definitely injured towards the end of the season

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

When you see players like Mbeumo and Joao Pedro cost 10M less than Rodrygo you know the market is so joke.

For 75M£ Rodrygo is totally worth a risk
