Real Madrid eye Vasco star, price tag shocks: "If that's it..." | OneFootball

The overwhelming performance of Rayan in the 2025 season has not gone unnoticed by the sharks of world football. According to information from the Spanish portal Fichajes.net, Vasco da Gama is expected to soon receive a major bid from none other than Real Madrid. The Merengue club, known for monitoring and signing the biggest Brazilian prospects, is reportedly preparing an offer that could change the financial history of São Januário.

50 million Euros on Vasco’s table

The rumored figures are jaw-dropping. Behind the scenes at Santiago Bernabéu, there is talk of a proposal that could reach 50 million euros (about R$ 315 million at the current exchange rate). If finalized, this deal would place the Cria da Colina among the most expensive transfers ever made for a player moving directly from South American football to Europe.

Real Madrid sees in Rayan the ideal profile: young (19 years old), with a privileged physique and competitive maturity, fitting perfectly into the strategy that has already brought names like Vinícius Jr. and Rodrygo to Spain.

Fierce competition

Despite the favoritism of the Madrid club, the race for the Vasco striker promises to be a true battle. Clubs such as Arsenal, Chelsea, Barcelona, and Inter Milan are also closely monitoring the player’s development, who already has 20 goals this season.

For Vasco, the situation is a dilemma between sporting ambition and financial necessity. The board knows that holding on to a generational talent in the face of such high figures is almost impossible, but trusts that the athlete’s continued appreciation could maximize profits even further in a future sale.
