Rodrygo confirms stance on Real Madrid future after Saudi Arabia links | OneFootball

Rodrygo has insisted he has no desire to leave Real Madrid in the wake of interest from Saudi Arabia.

Ever since Kylian Mbappe's arrival at Madrid in the summer, Rodrygo has been heavily linked with a move away from the Santiago Bernabeu, and things ramped up recently after he was touted as a potential replacement for Neymar at Al Hilal.

Al Hilal want a new big name to replace Neymar, who saw his contract terminated ahead of a free transfer to Santos, and it was recently reported that Rodrygo features high up on the list of possible targets alongside Liverpool's Mohamed Salah.

Quizzed on the interest, Rodrygo did his best to quash suggestions of a summer exit from Madrid.

"I don't know much about offers, that's up to my father, who is my agent," he told the media ahead of Tuesday's Champions League clash with Manchester City. "Honestly."

He added: "I'm very happy here, I want to stay for many years and I'm grateful. I don't know if the club has any offers."

City boss Pep Guardiola, who has also been speculatively linked with a move for Rodrygo, was full of praise for Madrid's front four and even described the Brazilian as "almost unstoppable".

"Happy [to hear the praise], because he is a great coach in the history of football," Rodrygo responded. "But I hope that everything goes well for Madrid."
