According to Soccer Espana, Real Madrid is currently engaged in contract negotiations with Brazil’s forwards and is aiming to extend its stay beyond its current contract until 2028.
The Spanish giants want to secure his service until 2030, reflecting their long-term commitment to players.
Despite the club’s intentions, the players have expressed concern about his role in the team, especially after not appearing in the final month of the season.
He asks for clarity from his newly appointed manager Xabi Alonso about his position and future contributions to the team.
This uncertainty has attracted attention from top Premier League clubs, including Arsenal and Manchester City.

Arsenal, in particular, shows strong interest in reports suggesting that it had made the first move to secure a player’s signature.
However, Real Madrid has set the forward valuation of 80 million euros. This can be an important hurdle for potential suitors.
Paris Saint-Germain is also monitoring the situation despite recently strengthening its attack options.
The player’s decision could depend on the outcome of his discussion with Alonso and the assurances he received about his role on the team.
Rodrigo is being chased heavily by Arsenal.
As the summer transfer window approaches, the future for players remains uncertain.
If he chooses to seek opportunities elsewhere, it could cause a competitive bidding war between European elite clubs.
Arsenal is also interested in the movement of AC Milan’s Rafael Leo and if they lose in the race to sign Rodrigo, they have enough backup options in their minds.
The gunner is also reportedly approaching the signing of sports striker Victor Gyoker, who has been attracting attention from the world’s biggest clubs this summer.
