Rodrygo is demanding a whopping £350k-a-week to make the switch from Real Madrid to the Premier League. Manchester City were quoted this figure when they expressed interest in the player, who is highly regarded by their manager, Pep Guardiola.
Arsenal, who have shown strong interest in Real's Brazilian winger, can expect a similar wage demand, as can Liverpool, another club linked with the player. This hefty wage demand will likely deter Tottenham, another interested party.
Real Madrid are also asking for a £76 million transfer fee for 24-year-old Rodrygo, who is on Bayern Munich's radar as well. Manchester City are hesitant to meet Rodrygo's wage demands, which are akin to what Kevin De Bruyne was earning before his move to Napoli this summer.
As a result, they've put their interest on hold while keeping an eye on the situation. It seems Rodrygo may need to lower his wage expectations if he wants to secure a move away from the Bernabeu.
