Real Madrid’s Rodrygo not interested in Manchester United summer switch – Man United News And Transfer News

1

Despite late defensive errors against Brentford and Chelsea, it has been up front where Manchester United have struggled in the Premier League this season.

They have scored 43 goals, lowest among the top-13 teams in the top flight with only summer signing Rasmus Hojlund managing to breach the 10-goal mark.

Manager Erik ten Hag struggled to find a right winger early on in the season with Antony’s form going down a cliff alongside his off-field issues.

The Dutchman then had a major falling-out with Jadon Sancho and was forced to shift Alejandro Garnacho out to the right, where he has excelled thus far.

RW issues

But the Argentine prefers the left and with Marcus Rashford’s commitment being questioned every other week, it was the former Atletico Madrid man who started in his preferred position against the Blues.

The club have been linked with an audacious swoop for Real Madrid star Rodrygo Goes, whose position could be under threat should Kylian Mbappe arrive in the summer.

The 21/22 Champions League winner has struck 15 goals and registered eight assists in 42 games across all competitions and is their third-highest scorer.

As relayed by The Peoples Person, United are prepared to present an astronomical offer to the La Liga giants should they choose to sell the Brazilian.

Unfortunately, F365 have relayed that the 23-year-old “received several tempting calls” from the Red Devils among other interested suitors but he has “said no”.

Rodrygo does not want United move

Chelsea, Paris Saint-Germain and Al-Hilal were all in the fray but the Brazil international will “only leave the Santiago Bernabeu to land on a competitive, ambitious and stable project”.

And the team that he prefers is Liverpool with the report claiming moving to Anfield “would seduce him”. The team from Merseyside could lose Mohamed Salah and the former Santos star could be the answer.

The versatile forward has a market value of €100 million according to Transfermarkt.

However, it must be remembered that Los Blancos do not usually sell their best players and it is unlikely that Rodrygo will leave this summer.

There is no point throwing money at a player not motivated to come to Old Trafford. Despite being a “special” player, United should ideally focus on recruiting a striker up front with Garnacho showing he can shine down the right.
