Luis Enrique wants PSG to secure struggling Real Madrid star – report | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain are already laying the groundwork for what could be one of the most eye-catching moves of the upcoming summer transfer window, and Real Madrid find themselves firmly in the spotlight. 

According to a recent report from Fichajes, PSG manager Luis Enrique has personally identified Rodrygo as a priority signing and is actively pushing the club to explore a deal for the Brazilian forward.

The interest is not casual nor opportunistic. Enrique reportedly views Rodrygo as a near-perfect fit for the tactical framework he is building in Paris. 

The former Barcelona and Spain coach is keen to refine PSG’s attacking structure, and in Rodrygo, he sees a forward capable of elevating PSG’s possession-based approach while adding versatility across the frontline.

PSG are impressed with Rodrygo

PSG’s technical staff believe that Rodrygo’s ability to operate on either flank, drift into central spaces and contribute defensively makes him an attractive option for a coach who values balance as much as flair. 

Meanwhile, it must be noted that Rodrygo’s situation at Real Madrid adds further drama to the story.

The Brazilian’s future has come under scrutiny in recent months, particularly during a prolonged spell without finding the back of the net. 

Before scoring against Manchester City, Rodrygo had not scored a goal for Real Madrid since March.

That drought inevitably fuelled speculation about his standing within the squad and his role under Xabi Alonso.

While Rodrygo has begun to regain momentum, scoring in each of his last two appearances, the uncertainty surrounding his long-term place in Alonso’s starting XI refuses to fade. 

Competition in Madrid’s attack remains fierce, and tactical reshuffles continue to raise questions about guaranteed minutes.
