Eberechi Eze is Arsenal-bound after a whirlwind of a transfer saga, but could Real Madrid winger Rodrygo be joining him? TBR Football can reveal, it’s a possibility.
Eze is heading to Arsenal after the Englishman snubbed Spurs in one of the stories of the summer transfer window.
Eze looked destined for Tottenham, but after Arsenal submitted a formal bid, there was only one destination for the Crystal Palace man.

So does that mean Arsenal are done bolstering their attacking options? Maybe not, Mikel Arteta wants to play Eze as the No.10, which means Arsenal still have a left-winger issue. Could Rodrygo fill that gap?
Rodrygo has been rumoured to Arsenal for the last month, with the Brazilian most certainly unsettled at the Bernabeu.
The 24-year-old has been shunned amid transfer speculation by Xabi Alonso, with Rodrygo benched for the La Liga opener.
The Spaniard downplayed this and stated the decision was tactical, but if it happens two times in a row, there has to be something there, TBR Football’s chief correspondent, Graeme Bailey, has alluded to.
“Rodrygo didn’t get any minutes at all in the last match,” Bailey begins. Let’s see what happens this weekend.”
Rodrygo’s side face Real Oviedo this Sunday, where the Brazilian will find out his fate not just in this match, but potentially for the season ahead.
An interesting one to keep your eyes on as an Arsenal and a Premier League fan, let’s be honest.
