Tottenham transfer news: Rodrygo's situation clarified after 'offer' for Real Madrid star

Tottenham Hotspur are allegedly yet to make an offer for Real Madrid attacker Rodrygo despite the recent reports.

The Brazil international's future is currently the subject of much speculation, with Los Blancos believed to be open to letting him leave for the right price during this summer's transfer window.

Arsenal had been heavily linked with the attacker, but the Gunners are no longer believed to be considering making for a move for him, with another North London club instead emerging as the favourites.

Recent reports in Spain have claimed that Spurs have made an offer for the South American, who is said to be keen to remain at Bernabeu and fight for his position in the starting side.

However, according to journalist Ben Jacobs, such suggestions are "wide of the mark", with Real Madrid yet to receive a bid for the 24-year-old, who has a contract at Bernabeu until June 2028.

Tottenham 'yet to make offer' for Real Madrid's Rodrygo

"Suggestions Spurs have placed a formal bid for Rodrygo are wide of the mark. As of Tuesday morning, Real Madrid have received no bids from any club," Jacobs posted on X.

"Real are still prepared to sell if Rodrygo informs them he wishes to leave. Player has now met Xabi Alonso and did not hand in a transfer request. Open situation, with Rodrygo being offered to several clubs in case he decides to exit."

Rodrygo made the move to Real Madrid from Santos in 2019, and he has represented his current side on 270 occasions, scoring 68 goals and registering 51 assists in the process.

Last season, the attacker found it difficult to make his mark in La Liga, only managing six goals and six assists, while he was given a reduced role by new head coach Xabi Alonso at the 2025 Club World Cup.

Will Rodrygo leave Real Madrid this summer?

Real Madrid are seemingly open to a sale, but it remains to be seen whether any of the interested clubs are prepared to pay the amount of money that Los Blancos are believed to be demanding.

Indeed, it is unlikely that Real Madrid would listen to offers of under £70m for Rodrygo considering the forward's age and experience, while he is proven at the highest level.

Tottenham are said to be accelerating their attempts to bring in a playmaker, as James Maddison is facing a long period on the sidelines with the seemingly serious injury that he suffered against Newcastle United last weekend.
