Fabrizio Romano has become one of the most high-profile figures in Spanish soccer thanks to his reliable leaks. The journalist has been criticized on several occasions, but the reality is that he rarely fails in his reports. The Italian is usually the first to announce departures and signings for teams, and soccer fans trust his judgment quite a lot.
Fabrizio Romano has spoken several times about Real Madrid during this transfer window, and everything has turned out to be true. The squad of the Merengue side is undergoing many changes lately, and it seems that it's not over yet. Now, the journalist has revealed information through social media that could give Rodrygo a new team.
Xabi Alonso's Real Madrid
Xabi Alonso arrived at Real Madrid a few weeks ago with the intention of fixing what's broken. Carlo hasn't managed to build a competitive squad that works well together and has ended up leaving. Florentino is clear that nothing and no one comes before the club, and he has been proving it for many years.
Real Madrid are used to fighting for every title and winning, something that slipped away from them on all fronts this year. Xabi Alonso came in to prepare for the Club World Cup, but the results weren't what was desired. During the preparations, Fabrizio Romano was announcing a series of signings that ultimately took place.
Now, Fabrizio Romano has confirmed that Son has a verbal agreement in place with LAFC, an MLS side. A few days ago, the Korean announced that he needed a change of scenery and that he wasn't going to stay at Tottenham Hotspur. This leaves the door open for Rodrygo, who is close to leaving for another team.
Rodrygo and his departure
According to Fabrizio Romano, Tottenham Hotspur are fine with Son's decision, and the American side will pay €15 million. Heung-min Son is one of the most beloved footballers in the Premier League and in soccer in general, so his absence won't be easy to cover. Real Madrid are considering letting Rodrygo go, since he doesn't convince Xabi Alonso at all, who doesn't see him as key in his system.
Given this situation, Rodrygo could be Heung-min Son's replacement at Tottenham. We'll have to keep a close eye on Fabrizio Romano so we don't miss any possible updates.
