Manchester City are probably considering signing someone to replace Julian Alvarez, who has left for Atletico Madrid. According to Give Me Sport, the Premier League club could get a chance to sign Real Madrid attacker Rodrygo this summer.
Rodrygo has been instrumental for Real Madrid
Rodrygo has emerged as one of the best attackers in world football ever since joining Real Madrid in 2018 from Santos. His impressive performances and the ability to step up at the crucial stages are appreciated by many across the globe.
Rodrygo played a key role in Real Madrid’s success last season. He appeared in 51 games, netting 17 goals and providing nine assists. He averaged 2.6 shots, 1.4 key passes, and 1.6 dribbles per game (stats via whoscored).
The Brazilian attacker has good speed, can dribble, provide key passes and also do the finishing touches. He is a versatile player who can feature in all the positions on the front line. He also tracks back to help in the defensive aspects of the game.
Rodrygo is unlikely to leave Real Madrid this summer
Manchester City are probably going to sign a new attacker to fill Julian Alvarez‘s shoes before the summer window closes. One of the most mentioned names has been Rodrygo, who is appreciated by boss Pep Guardiola himself.
However, the signing seems unlikely as it would be hard to pull off a big signing like this in such a short period. Though there have been reports that Rodrygo might think about leaving the Spanish club following the arrival of Kylian Mbappe, there has been no such development.
Instead, the Brazilian attacker finds himself happy at Real Madrid and will not entertain any offer. Moreover, the La Liga champions will also try to hold the special talent and not sell him to one of their competitors this summer.
