Liverpool Again Said to Be ‘at Head’ of Race for Player – He Says ‘Anything Can Happen’ and Causes Fuss

Liverpool’s interest in Rodrygo has been intermittently reported since his early days at Santos.

As the Real Madrid star prepares for another Champions League final, his future has unexpectedly become a hot topic in the Spanish media.

This speculation was sparked by an interview with DAZN. According to Mundo Deportivo, Rodrygo was noncommittal about his long-term future at Santiago Bernabéu.

“Anything can happen. I have a contract here, but I don’t know,” said Rodrygo.

Then he backtracked a little: “No, no. I’ve always said I want to be at this club, but let’s see.”

The quotes are from a teaser published on DAZN’s Twitter account and may not accurately capture the player’s tone during the interview.

Nevertheless, Rodrygo’s comments seemed to imply uncertainty about his future at Real Madrid, leading many fans to question why he made these remarks just before the Champions League final.

As a Catalan outlet, Mundo Deportivo emphasised the story, suggesting that Rodrygo will have plenty of offers this summer, with ‘half of the Premier League’ interested and Liverpool leading the charge.

Although a transfer to Anfield has always seemed unlikely, this rumour persists. Earlier this month, reports from Spain claimed that Liverpool made a €120m bid for Rodrygo, which Real Madrid reportedly rejected.
