Real Madrid slapped a massive 100 million euro price tag on Brazilian sensation Rodrigo as transfer speculation heats up around the young star. Saudi Arabian giants Al-Nassr have been sniffing around the 23-year-old midfielder after deciding they want him to team up with Cristiano Ronaldo. The Riyadh-based club believes pairing Rodrigo with the Portuguese legend would create an unstoppable attacking force. Al-Nassr bosses have deep pockets thanks to backing from the Public Investment Fund, which makes even astronomical fees achievable. The Saudi side previously chased other Brazilian talents like Vinicius Junior and Luis Diaz without success.
Madrid chiefs have not officially signaled any desire to offload their prized asset, especially after his stellar campaign helped deliver another Champions League trophy. Rodrigo stands as a cornerstone of the Spanish giants' long-term planning, making any departure unlikely under normal circumstances. Club executives view the young Brazilian as essential to their future success and rarely entertain offers for such vital players. The arrival of Kylian Mbappe has created an abundance of attacking options at the Bernabeu, which might change their thinking. A nine-figure bid could force Real Madrid to seriously consider cashing in on their valuable star.
