Arsenal fans believe Real Madrid have dropped the biggest hint yet that Rodrygo will be allowed to leave this summer. After playing a bit-part role at the Club World Cup, Rodrygo’s future has been called into question once again following Los Blancos’ opening La Liga fixture of the new season.

Real Madrid are willing to sell Rodrygo after Xabi Alonso snubbed him against Osasuna, claims a source, as Arsenal learn when the Brazilian star would make a final decision as the Gunners search for a replacement for the injured Kai Havertz.

Xabi Alonso decided to start Brahim Diaz in the right wing position against Osasuna this week and brought on Franco Mastantuono to replace Diaz in the second half. Rodrygo did not come off the bench, and rumors of his departure continue as the summer transfer window closes in less than 10 days.
