Real Madrid and their new coach Xabi Alonso are open to Brazil forward Rodrygo leaving the club this summer. The 24-year-old made his first appearance for Madrid in 53 days in their opening Club World Cup game (a 1-1 draw against Al Hilal on June 18) but has played only 23 minutes for Alonso in their three matches since.

Real Madrid manager Xabi Alonso is open to selling Rodrygo this summer, a report has revealed, with Arsenal among the suitors of the Brazilian. Rodrygo’s future at Madrid was thrust into uncertainty towards the end of last season under former manager Carlo Ancelotti and was one of the first major questions asked of Alonso up his arrival at the Santiago Bernabéu this summer.
