According to reports, Spurs see the 24-year-old as a marquee addition to bolster their attacking options.<\/p><p>Spurs have continued to struggle for creativity in home fixtures this season. The left side of the attack has been a persistent issue, with Richarlison failing to impress in that role. While names such as Antoine Semenyo and Ademola Lookman have been linked as potential signings, Rodrygo has now emerged as Tottenham&rsquo;s top target. <\/p><p>The Brazilian&rsquo;s influence at Real Madrid has declined in recent months, particularly under new manager Xabi Alonso. The former Bayer Leverkusen manager has given Rodrygo a reduced role in the squad. Reports suggest both the player and the club are open to exploring transfer options this winter. <\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eight Months Without a Goal for Rodrygo<\/h2><p>Rodrygo is facing one of the most difficult periods of his Real Madrid career, having gone eight months without finding the back of the net. The Brazilian forward&rsquo;s last goal came on March 4, when he opened the scoring in Champions League against Atletico Madrid. Since that night, Rodrygo&rsquo;s form has dipped significantly.<\/p><p><strong>Also Read: <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/sunderland-end-arsenals-winning-streak-with-dramatic-late-equaliser\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Sunderland End Arsenal&rsquo;s Winning Streak with Dramatic Late Equaliser<\/a><\/strong><\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">&#128680; Tottenham remain interested in signing Real Madrid forward Rodrygo and would be prepared to pay the Spanish club's asking price of &pound;70M for the Brazil international.<br><br>(Source: Fichajes)<br><br>&#128680; &#120293;&#120280;&#120288;&#120284;&#120289;&#120279;&#120280;&#120293;: He's scored 0 goals in his last 29 games for Real Madrid.<br><br>&pound;70M for&hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/niHrWEtY4d\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/niHrWEtY4d<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Transfer News Live (@DeadlineDayLive) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/DeadlineDayLive\/status\/1987774537191071758?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>November 10, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Once seen as one of Madrid&rsquo;s most dynamic attacking prospects, the 24-year-old now finds himself struggling to make an impact.
