Competition fades, the path seems to be traced. For PSG, the opportunity to recruit Rodrygo is on the table. But Paris is not going to throw itself on it.
The doors close one by one for Rodrygo.
Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Bayern … All the cadors that courted him threw in the towel. On paper remains only PSG as a credible destination and up to its ambitions. Real Madrid, seller, awaits 90 million euros. The equation seems simple: Paris has a boulevard to offer the Brazilian winger. However, in the offices of the capital's club, precipitation is not on the agenda. On the contrary.
Rodrygo: an opportunity, not a necessity
The Parisian strategy is simple, almost obvious: playing the watch. For what ? Because PSG is not in an emergency. The current priorities are called Illya Zabarnyi in Defense and Lucas Chevalier in the goals. The offensive sector, even if Luis Enrique and Luis Campos want to strengthen it, is already well provided. In this context, Rodrygo is not seen as an absolute necessity, but as a tremendous market opportunity. And an opportunity is negotiated at the right price, not at a high price.
Paris knows that time is its best ally. Real Madrid needs to sell and the list of potential buyers has been reduced as a sorrow skin. The balance of power has reversed. Each day that passes without new offer puts a little more pressure on the Spanish club, which could be forced to review its demands at the end of the transfer window so as not to end up with a player who wants to go on his arms.
Real ready to sacrifice Rodrygo, Paris on alert
PSG transfer window liar poker
It is a dangerous game, but calculated. Paris takes the risk of seeing another club wake up, or Real Madrid camp in its positions. But it is a measured risk. We know the transfer window: the last weeks are often the scene of good deals for clubs that have been patient. PSG could therefore wait for the departures of players like Kolo Muani or Asensio to come to draw an offer, but an offer to its conditions.
There is also another possible reading: what if the interest of PSG was only a facade? A way to maintain pressure on the market, without real intention to take action. After all, even without Rodrygo, the Parisian workforce has something to shake Europe. This file is therefore not a race, but a game of chess. And in this game, Paris seems to think that patience is the best strategies to bring down the king.
