ESPN: Liverpool talks to Real Madrid about Rodrigo, possible offer of about 100 million euros

According to ESPN, Liverpool has started transfer negotiations with Real Madrid.

The Spanish media "As" reported the news. On Wednesday, ESPN confirmed that Liverpool had started negotiations with Real Madrid on a transfer. According to reports, there is no official offer for the Brazilian player, and according to the news of the Ass, the possible offer is about 100 million euros.

At present, Liverpool is not the only team interested in Rodrigo, and Bayern is also paying attention to Rodrigo's situation. In addition, in early July, ESPN reported that Manchester City, Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain were also interested in the deal. Rodrigo's future is full of uncertainty, especially after the arrival of Xavi Alonso, rumors about his transfer have become increasingly fierce.

For example, in the Club World Cup, the Brazilian player only made three appearances under the leadership of the new coach, with only one starting one of them. There are also reports that Rodrigo and his team are waiting for Real Madrid to communicate more clearly about the future to determine whether Rodrigo is really in the plan or whether his hopes for his time are far away.

When asked about Rodrigo's performance during the Club World Cup, Xavi Alonso said he hopes Rodrigo can continue to play this season. He pointed out: "I believe Rodrigo can return to his best condition. I have talked to him. He is positive, enthusiastic, and ready at any time."

With the change in the team's tactical structure, it is difficult for Rodrigo to find his place under Xavi Alonso. The player himself has made it clear that he wants to play as a left winger, and this position is currently occupied by Vinicius. Previously, Ancelotti believed that Rodrigo did not have to compete with Vinicius and Mbappe on the front line, because he could find his position in the midfield in a 4-4-2 system.

The key is that under the coaching of Xavi Alonso, Real Madrid's tactics during the Club World Cup were different. The team either played 3-5-2 or 4-3-1-2, which further restricted Rodrigo's chances of playing because he eventually needed to compete directly with Vinicius.
