Real Madrid’s pursuit of Erling Haaland could soon be reignited if Rodrygo Goes makes a surprising exit from the club.
According to Fichajes, the potential sale of the Brazilian forward could free up the financial resources needed for Real Madrid to target the Manchester City star.
The news comes as Madrid faces uncertain times with Rodrygo, who has been unsettled by his reduced role within a squad now led by Vinícius Jr., Kylian Mbappé, and Jude Bellingham.
Rodrygo’s frustration grew after his absence from the high-profile El Clasico, signaling potential tension with his current standing at the club.
With clubs such as Arsenal, Chelsea, and even Manchester City keeping a close watch on his situation, a sale might be on the horizon. The transfer fee for Rodrygo is estimated to be between €100-120 million, which could give Madrid the financial boost needed for a move for Haaland.
Real Madrid’s interest in Haaland remains strong, despite the Norwegian striker’s recent contract extension at City.
His agent has left the door open for a future move, keeping the door ajar for the Spanish giants. Sources suggest that if Rodrygo departs, Madrid could be well-positioned to push for Haaland, with the striker’s transfer value set at over €170 million, plus a significant yearly salary.
Florentino Pérez, Real Madrid’s president, has long dreamed of building an attacking line that includes both Haaland and Mbappé. Should circumstances align, Madrid could once again dominate European football with one of the most lethal forward pairings in history.
