Tottenham have reportedly entered the race to sign Real Madrid winger Rodrygo this summer.


The 24-year-old has been heavily linked with a potential departure from the Santiago Bernabéu, with several top European clubs showing interest.

Arsenal were previously considered front-runners for the Brazil international, having held talks with his representatives on multiple occasions.

However, the Gunners' interest appears to have cooled in recent weeks — and now, a surprise contender has emerged.

According to Diario AS, Arsenal's North London rivals Tottenham are keen on signing Rodrygo ahead of next season.

Spurs are believed to have a strong relationship with Real Madrid, and chairman Daniel Levy is reportedly hopeful of negotiating a deal below the player's €90m asking price.
