5:58pm, 1 July 2025【Football】

Arsenal showed clear signs of ambition to sign. The decisions of the Gunners' senior executives reflect their strategy of locking in top goals, and the most eye-catching name is Rodrigo Goss.

The Real Madrid Brazil winger has attracted the attention of many teams, but according to Spanish sources, the London team has taken the lead in action. A person familiar with the club confirmed that the two sides had contact and the possibility of a transfer was real. However, there is something else in the story - Rodrigo is not in a hurry to make a decision. Despite Arsenal's continued pressure, he remained calm and watched, waiting deep down to Manchester's call: Guardiola's team-building plan has long fascinated him.

Manchester City remained silent. The intention to quote was not found in the public channel, and relevant persons from the club also denied any action. But the situation is worthy of fun: 24-year-old Rodrigo not only has the experience of Real Madrid in key battles, but also plays the winner and loser on Champions League nights many times. Although the price of

90 million euros is high, it is inevitable for Guardiola Manchester City. The question is whether the Blue Moon is willing to open this door. The Brazilian has not concealed his admiration for Catalonia coach and is eager to join the world's best team in his mind, but the Daily Mail team reporter Jack Gaohan has denied rumors of Manchester City's related rumor.

Should Manchester City spend 90 million? The reasons for support are sufficient. This Brazilian attacker has both speed, dribbling and finishing ability, and has significantly improved his tactical qualities under Ancelotti. He is not limited to a single-attribute player on the right, and can perfectly adapt to multiple offensive positions. For the Gua system that emphasizes positional flow, this kind of versatile player is an ideal puzzle.

His admiration for Guardiola is a plus. The tacit understanding between the generals and coaches often catalyzes the performance of players. Rodrigo particularly agrees with his way of cultivating talents and the concept of team-first. This understanding will accelerate the adaptation process. In addition, Manchester City's forward line urgently needs to add width - frequent injuries, dense schedules and potential departures force the club to prepare for the future. Rodrigo has long proved that he has the ability to withstand pressure on big scenes, and has repeatedly scored goals in tough battles to show his big heart.

But there are also hidden dangers: their participation in the game fluctuates, and there is still a gap in stability compared to players at the same position as Saka or Vinicius. At the age of 24, he has not yet developed a strong physique and is slightly inadequate in fighting aggressiveness.

Plastic space is its greatest capital. Manchester City can regard it as a carved jade. If you give up this opportunity, you may miss a scarce asset that has both youth and top experience. For a team that is determined to remain competitive and exchange blood while changing blood, Rodrigo may be the missing championship puzzle.
