Tottenham has determined that Rodrygo is the perfect replacement for Son Heung Min. The captain of Spurs had confirmed he would leave the club this summer to switch to Los Angeles FC.
According to AS, Spurs President Daniel Levy wants to bring the Brazilian winger to the North London team in the context that he is struggling to find opportunities to play at Real Madrid since Kylian Mbappe moved to the club in the form of free transfer last summer. However, Rodrygo has not been interested in leaving the Bernabeu in the summer transfer window.
The source added that Spurs is aware of Liverpool's interest in Rodrygo and The Kop will probably take specific steps to sign a contract with a 24 -year -old winger, after being rejected by Newcastle for an initial offer worth £ 120 million for star striker Alexander Isak.
Rodrygo still contracts with Real Madrid until the summer of 2028. After moving from Santos in 2019, Rodrygo played 270 matches for Los Blancos, scoring 68 goals and having 51 assists. With the level that has been confirmed and the ideal age, Real Madrid will definitely not let him leave at a low price. Any farewell will come with a very high transfer fee, and even this condition can make Spurs difficult.
Until now, Tottenham has spent 145.6 million euros to bring new rookies in the summer transfer window, including Mohammed Kudus, Mathys Tel, Kevin Danso, Luka Vuskovic, Kota Takai and the latest Joao Palhinha – a player that new coach Thomas Frank is expected to become “lungs” in the middle area.
