Liverpool are reportedly being considered the “favourites” to land a player with 25 goal contributions, but a journalist has now provided an update on the current state of the situation.

Rodrygo Goes may be heading for a Real Madrid exit this summer, with several Premier League clubs reportedly monitoring his situation.

Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur have shown interest in the 24-year-old, who could be made available as Madrid aim to generate funds through player sales.

No Official Offers Yet

Journalist Ben Jacobs reports that no English club has made a formal bid for Rodrygo so far. He also noted that claims suggesting Liverpool are leading the race for his signature are currently just speculation.

Why Rodrygo Fits Liverpool

Liverpool could benefit from bringing in a player like Rodrygo, especially as they near a deal to offload Darwin Nunez. The Brazilian would bring versatility, creativity, and goal-scoring ability to the Reds’ frontline. He scored 14 goals and provided 11 assists last season and still has room to grow into a world-class talent.

Isak Still the Priority

However, Liverpool remain strongly linked to Alexander Isak of Newcastle United. The Swedish striker is believed to be their top target, and reports suggest they’re ready to break the British transfer record to sign him. If Isak joins, a move for Rodrygo appears unlikely.

The situation remains fluid and will be worth monitoring as the transfer window progresses.
