Real Madrid star ‘really liked’ by Manchester United | OneFootball

A member of the attacking ranks at La Liga giants Real Madrid has made his way onto the transfer wishlist of Premier League outfit Manchester United.

That’s according to Blancos insider Jorge C Picon, who points towards Rodrygo as the player in question.

Versatile attacker Rodrygo has of course seen his name return to the headlines in Spain’s capital in force over recent weeks.

This comes after the 24-year-old struggled badly for game-time at the Club World Cup under the watch of new head coach Xabi Alonso.

As much has culminated in the speculation pointing towards a potential Real Madrid exit for Rodrygo ramping up yet further, amid strong interest in the Brazilian on the part of Premier League heavyweights Arsenal.

As alluded to above, though, if the latest word stemming from the media this weekend is anything to go by, then Arsenal are not the only English club with an interest in Rodrygo’s services.

As per a report from journalist Jorge C Picon:

‘In addition to Cunha, Manchester United are looking for attacking players. They are close to signing Mbeumo from Brentford, but they continue to search for more wingers in the market. One of the players they really like (for some time now) is Rodrygo.’
