In the final moments of the summer transfer window, the future of Brazilian winger Rodrygo Goes became a focal point for major European clubs. Despite transfer rumors, particularly linking him to Manchester City, the player continued to focus on his future with Real Madrid.
Recently, reports have circulated about Manchester City’s desire to strengthen its squad with a top-tier attacking winger, and Rodrygo was among the key options to bolster their attack this summer. The English club hoped to sign him as part of its plan to continue building its formidable attacking project, which needed rejuvenation.

Despite his brilliance last season, Rodrygo found himself out of the plans of Spanish coach Xabi Alonso in recent matches. This exclusion led some to speculate that the player might seek a move away from Real Madrid. But would he decide to leave, or would he stay and prove himself at the Santiago Bernabéu?
During this period, major clubs like Arsenal expressed interest in signing him, but Real Madrid refused any offers unless they met his high financial demands, estimated at around €80 million, making any negotiations extremely difficult.
In a surprising turn of events, Rodrygo Goes has made a final decision regarding his future, confirming that he will stay with Real Madrid this season. The Brazilian has decided to remain at the club, closing the door on a move to Manchester City or any other destination.
Rodrygo is confident in his ability to turn things around under Xabi Alonso and believes he has a chance to prove himself next season. Moreover, he is optimistic about securing a spot in the Brazilian national team under Carlo Ancelotti.
On the other hand, Rodrygo remains under contract with Real Madrid until June 2028, meaning he will stay with the team until the end of his contract, ready to fight for his place in the starting lineup.
