In a sensational development in the transfer market, Real Madrid have reportedly made a bold offer to Paris Saint-Germain: swapping their young Brazilian star Roddrygo for Portuguese midfielder Joao Neves. A move reportedly initiated directly by president Florentino Perez, who is determined to bolster Madrid’s midfield with one of European football’s most promising talents.

Roddrygo: A gem ready to change the horizon?
Rodrygo, 23, has become a key figure in the Real Madrid squad. Volatile, fast, technical, and possessing great game intelligence, he made his mark on Champions League night. However, with the imminent arrival of Kylian Mbappé and the return to form of Vinícius Jr., his place in the starting eleven appears increasingly threatened.

Florentino Perez, lucid about this situation, would therefore see in Rodrygo a valuable asset to obtain a player who perfectly meets the future needs of Real Madrid: Joao Neves, 19, considered the future model of the Portuguese midfielder.
Joao Neves: a priority target for the merentues
Joao Neves, currently under contract with Paris Saint-Germain after a remarkable move from Benfica, is considered one of the most complete defensive players of his generation. With his excellent reading of the game, a rare sense of positioning, and an ability to quickly distribute the ball, he quickly earned the trust of his coach Luis Enrique.

However, despite a quick adaptation to Ligue 1 and convincing performances, his future could change if a sufficiently serious offer were to come to the table. And what could be more serious than Rodrygo, estimated at over €100 million on the market?
Luis Enrique’s response surprises everyone
While many thought that Luis Enrique might at least consider Madrid’s offer, the Spanish coach’s response was categorical: “Joao Neves is not for sale, neither today nor tomorrow. He is part of the heart of our project.” A strong statement that, for the moment, has reinforced the door to any departure.
According to sources close to the Paris club, the Spaniard even insisted with the management that a contract extension be considered in the summer in order to dissuade any external attempts.

An impossible exchange or a strategic maneuver?
Behind this strong response, some observers see a classic negotiating maneuver. PSG, aware of Real Madrid’s growing interest, could try to raise the bid or negotiate more favorable terms. Especially since Perez’s interest doesn’t appear to be a spur-of-the-moment move, but a well-thought-out strategy to prepare for the post-Modrique and Kroos era.
So far, no counter-offer has been received from PSG, but the summer promises to be eventful.
