Arsenal started recruiting large players to escape from second place.
Spain's Lelebo said on the 4th (Korea time) 'Real Madrid is considering selling Hodrigo and is paying attention to it in the English Premier League (EPL). Manchester City have been interested in the past, and Arsenal have recently inquired about Hodrigo. The transfer fee is expected to start at 100 million euros (about 158 billion won)," the report said.
Arsenal is considered the second most powerful candidate in the EPL from the 2022-2023 season. However, he always finished second. Both the 2022-2023 season and the 2023-2024 season remained in second place, failing to prevent Manchester City from winning. He failed to win the title again this season. While Manchester City has slowed down, Liverpool has sped away, and Arsenal are likely to finish the season in second place without chasing Liverpool.

From the next season, the competition for the championship will inevitably become fiercer. The championship contenders such as defending champion Liverpool and Manchester City, which have begun full-fledged rebuilding, are also expected to strengthen their power, so if Arsenal is negligent, it will be hard to slip and challenge the championship.
Arsenal are preparing to make a big bid for the championship. It's Hodri, the real striker. Hodrigu joined Real in 2019 and began making his name known as one of Brazil's top prospects. Last season, he also contributed to Real's La Liga and European Champions League wins by scoring 17 goals and nine assists in 51 games. Rodrigo's solver ability to steadily rescue Real from the crisis since joining Real has captured the hearts of fans.
However, Hodrigo's position has changed a little this season. Mbappe's joining was a problem. Real were unable to consistently guarantee Hodrigo's playing time due to Mbappe's addition. Vinicius Junior, Mbappe, Endrick, etc. had no problem forming the offense without Hodrigo. Hodrigo's possibility of a transfer continued to be discussed since the previous summer transfer market, but chose to stay.

Recently, the possibility of leaving Real has been raised due to the issue of renewing the contract. Hodrigo is struggling to negotiate with Real management, demanding a high salary increase, while Manchester United, Manchester City, and Liverpool are also interested in recruiting Hodrigo. For Arsenal, if they want to recruit, a quick agreement and confirmation of recruitment are inevitably important.
If Arsenal has Hodrigo, it is expected to be more supportive in its bid to win the next season. It can fill the left winger's spot, which has been disappointing throughout this season, and his experience in big games can help the Arsenal squad.
As the summer transfer market approaches, Arsenal's recruitment plans are starting little by little. Attention is also focusing on whether Arsenal can become the winner of the transfer market in the summer of 2025 while embracing Hodrigo.
