Following Kylian Mbappé’s arrival at Real Madrid, the French superstar has quickly been positioned as the club’s long-term focal point. This shift has raised eyebrows within the squad, especially among Madrid’s existing attacking talents. As Crickex Login reports, the club now faces an internal dilemma: with so many elite forwards on the roster, playing time has become a fiercely contested commodity. In the middle of this congestion is Rodrygo, the once-heralded prodigy who now appears ready to move on.

According to Crickex Login, Rodrygo, long considered one of Madrid’s cornerstone youth projects, has seen his market value climb to €100 million. His close control and technical finesse are elite, but in terms of explosiveness and personality, he has often been overshadowed by his Brazilian compatriot Vinícius Jr. Historically, Rodrygo has embraced his role as a secondary option. However, Mbappé’s arrival, coupled with Jude Bellingham’s meteoric rise, has pushed him further down the pecking order—and he’s not happy about it.

While he never minded supporting Vinícius, whom he shares both nationality and friendship with, being relegated behind newer stars has reportedly led Rodrygo to question his future. In the face of being eclipsed, Crickex Login has learned that he is now seriously considering a transfer to Manchester City, where he hopes to be molded under Pep Guardiola’s guidance. City, known for developing versatile attackers, not only have the financial resources to fund such a move but also the competitive pedigree—consistently ranking among the top contenders in the Champions League.

The thought process is clear: if Rodrygo doesn’t act, someone else will take his place. Under Guardiola, the Brazilian believes he could evolve into a Ballon d’Or-level forward. That ambition is now fueling his desire to leave Madrid and seek a more central role elsewhere.

Real Madrid, aware of his frustrations, have reportedly slapped a €130 million price tag on Rodrygo. Meanwhile, they’ve already begun planning for life after him. One potential successor is Arda Güler, who impressed at the European Championship and has been nicknamed the “new Kaká.” The Turkish star is expected to be a priority for the club’s future development.

On another front, Miguel Gutiérrez—who previously transferred from Madrid to Girona—may soon be on the move again. Though Madrid inserted a buy-back clause in his contract, Crickex Login has learned that they plan to activate it only to flip him to Manchester United for a fee of £34 million. Despite the financial logic, the long-term outlook for Gutiérrez at the Bernabéu appears dim.

Currently, Carlo Ancelotti already has France international Ferland Mendy as his first-choice left-back, and rumors continue to swirl about a potential move for Alphonso Davies from Bayern Munich. While Gutiérrez impressed during his three seasons at Girona—helping the club secure Champions League qualification and winning over fans—his path to a permanent role in Madrid remains uncertain.

In the evolving landscape of Real Madrid’s squad, Crickex Login concludes that players like Rodrygo and Gutiérrez may be forced to look elsewhere to truly shine. And as it stands, Manchester might just be the city of opportunity.
