Arsenal plot raid for Real Madrid frontman after top target chooses Barcelona
Arsenal have been among the clubs who were tracking Nico Williams for the past few weeks. But everything suggests the player could be on his way to Barcelona this summer. This is why Arsenal have shifted their priorities in the market and may instead go for a Real Madrid frontman. Arsenal eye move for Rodrygo According to AS, Arsena's search for a new attacker has led them towards Rodrygo. Advertisement The Brazilian international is one of the few Real Madrid players who are in contention to leave the club after a disappointing season and a poor performance in the opening Club World Cup match. Rodrygo has found himself in a precarious position this summer, where if he fails to convince Xabi Alonso, he might be in for a reduced role in the Real Madrid setup. Arsenal have set their sights on Rodrygo (Photo by) That has put Arsenal on red alert, with Mikel Arteta reportedly keen on bringing in players that can offer versatility in the final third. Rodrygo, to that end, could be a perfect bet. Arsenal expect many hurdles However, Arsenal have accepted the signing Rodrygo from Real Madrid won't be as straightforward. Advertisement The Premier League giants are having difficulties meeting the high salary demand of key attackers. This was the problem in the Nico Williams deal and there is no reason why Rodrygo, too, will not also demand a similar package. The report adds that Arsenal are not necessary the top choice for top players across Europe and even though the Gunners are playing in the Champions League, Rodrygo might want to weigh his options. For now, though, the Brazilian remains focused on the Club World Cup, where he will have an opportunity to impress Xabi Alonso.

Jobe Bellingham speaks on hesitance of joining Borussia Dortmund
New Borussia Dortmund signing Jobe Bellingham ultimately didn't end up earning a predicted start for his new Bundesliga club in Tuesday's Club World Cup opener. The 19-year-old nevertheless logged some significant minutes off the bench and had a solid BVB debut. Not long after BVB head coach Niko Kovac sent him on in the 59th minute, Bellingham engaged in a courageous tackle near the touchline. Bellingham's touch and overall field vision appeared strong. A 93 percent passing rate included some cautious rearward balls, but also some incisive forward slants. Advertisement Speaking at the press conference ahead of the second group stage match of the competition, Kovac answered a direct question as to why Bellingham didn't start. A reporter probed Kovac for the coach's thoughts on the teenager's fitness. 'His fitness is okay, but he still needs some time,' Kovac said. 'I wouldn't have any nervous qualms about bringing him on. Quite the opposite. It's just that we have several good midfielders. I'll leave it open for a start tomorrow [against South Africa's Mamelodi Sundowns]. That's information that belongs to me.' For his part, Bellingham himself felt as if his chance wouldn't be long in coming. The younger brother of mega-talent Jude Bellingham – who actually wears 'Jobe' on the back of his Dortmund tricot – spoke on his debut and revealed an interesting detail about his recent switch to the Bundesliga. Jobe clearly didn't wish to by a Jude copycat, following in the direct footsteps of his elder sibling like some sort of afterthought. Ultimately, BVB boss Hans-Joachim 'Acki' Watzke found the right words. Advertisement 'To be honest, it was kind of surreal, a bit strange because it was in the U.S.' Bellingham told German broadcaster DAZN. 'The stadium was unique, I'd never been there before. And I felt comfortable on the pitch. 'As contradictory as it might sound, I resisted Dortmund for a long time,' Bellingham continued when asked about his decision to move to Dortmund. 'It was a matter of fearing not being my own man. 'It would have been just as wrong to go to another club just because Jude went there,' Bellingham said. 'but [Watzke] said it was not about being different, but finding the right path. 'And if the right path is Dortmund – as it is for many young players – then why not?' Bellingham concluded. 'Dortmund fought long and hard to convince me.' GGFN | Peter Weis
