Arsenal is reportedly ready to rival Liverpool’s Liverpool star Rodrigo to go this summer.
The talented Brazilian International is often like an underrated person in the Bernabeu, and was probably overlooked a bit due to the big names around him.
Rodrigo often shines for Real Madrid, but he happens to have big names like Killian Mbappe and Vinicius Jr. as teammates.
Still, Jude Bellingham has previously described Rodrigo as the most talented player on this Real Madrid team.
Rodrigo may be seduced to go to a place where he could become his master. Arsenal appears to have emerged as his option.
According to Fichajes, the 24-year-old is one of the few names in Madrid that Gunners see, and has recently been linked to Liverpool by Todo Fichajes.

Rodrigo can play as a striker or on either side. So, it is clear that if he joins this summer he will soon be extremely helpful to Mikel Arteta.
Fichages notes that Rodrigo appears to be a difficult target, but it makes sense that the AFC is at least considering him.
Rodrigo can do that because Arteta needs a more natural goal scoring than Kai Herberts or Gabriel Jesus to lead the line.
Or, if not, South American forwards could also offer alternatives such as Bucayosaka or Gabriel Martinelli on the left or right.
The presence of Rodrigo would allow Arsenal to offer more rotation options. This could, in theory, help the club better deal with injuries next season.
Habertz, Jesus and Saka have all suffered long-term injuries this season.
Rodrigo could be a good option for Liverpool too. Liverpool is definitely looking for an unconvincing Darwin Nunes upgrade this summer.
