Son out, Rodrygo in? Tottenham ready transfer bid for Real Madrid star amid uncertain future

With Son set to leave Tottenham for Los Angeles FC, Thomas Frank's side are once again being linked with the Madrid forward. Now, according to SER, Rodrygo is one of the Los Blancos players with the 'greatest chance' of leaving the club this summer. And ahead of Son's impending departure, Spurs are said to be readying a €60m (£52m) bid for the Brazilian.

Rodrygo has been linked with a Madrid exit for months now, with new reports suggesting manager Xabi Alonso is not entirely happy with the 24-year-old. There may not be a place for him in Madrid's starting lineup with Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, Jude Bellingham, and rising star Gonzalo Garcia. Whether he would leave for Tottenham, though, is up in the air.

Former Santos FC ace Rodrygo, whose Madrid contract runs until the summer of 2028, has played 270 times for the Spanish giants, scoring 68 goals and adding 51 assists in all competitions. In that time, he has won three La Ligas, one Copa del Rey, and two Champions League titles, among other silverware.

Rodrygo, who has also helped Madrid win the Club World Cup in 2022 and the UEFA Super Cup twice, is currently training with the first-team in their shortened pre-season campaign. It remains to be seen if he will still be at the club when the transfer window shuts in a few weeks.
