Real Madrid believe that attacker Rodrygo would not be interested in a move to Newcastle United if the Magpies make an offer. Reports from Spanish journalist Guillem Balague suggest that Real Madrid remain unconvinced the 24-year-old would be open to a move to Newcastle United, even if the Magpies were to step up their long-standing interest. While Newcastle have been linked with Rodrygo throughout the summer, no formal bid has been placed.

Newcastle United are planning to bid for Rodrygo. The club is preparing for an ambitious transfer investment of over €200 million this summer and has made Rodrygo one of their four major targets. The Spanish and European champions are willing to sell Rodrygo for €80 million. However, the reliability of the source Fichajes is questioned, and the deal would require Newcastle to meet Rodrygo’s high salary demands. Transfermarkt currently estimates his market worth at €100 million.
