“We really need to bring Rodrygo here and we are ready to go as far giving two of our key players in exchange for him” – This is according to Enzo Maresca as Chelsea identify two key players they’re prepared to include in potential swap deal for Real Madrid’s Rodrygo

**Chelsea Still Eyeing Rodrygo as Transfer Window Deadline Approaches**

Chelsea may look to bring in another wide attacker before the transfer window shuts, with fresh interest being reported in Real Madrid forward Rodrygo.

Although the Blues have recently secured Jamie Gittens, they appear set to offload Noni Madueke to Arsenal. Meanwhile, Jadon Sancho has returned to Manchester United, and Mykhailo Mudryk remains unavailable for selection due to injury.

While Liverpool are currently seen as frontrunners for Rodrygo’s signature, Chelsea have not stepped back from pursuing the 24-year-old Brazilian international.

Rodrygo featured in over 50 matches for Real Madrid last season, finding the back of the net 14 times across all competitions.

**Chelsea Could Use Nkunku and Felix in Rodrygo Swoop**

Reports from *Real Madrid Confidential* suggest Chelsea are open to including both Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix in a potential exchange deal to land Rodrygo.

Though the Spanish club’s stance on accepting such a proposal remains unclear, the Blues may view this as an opportunity to offload two attackers who may not feature prominently under Enzo Maresca.

Joao Felix, in particular, is believed to be out of the club’s long-term plans, and his name has been linked with a possible return to Benfica. Meanwhile, speculation around Nkunku’s future also continues to grow.

**Rodrygo’s Future Still Undecided**

Despite strong interest from top clubs, Rodrygo has yet to make a final decision regarding his next move, according to the same report. That indecision may provide Chelsea with a small window of opportunity to make their case.

However, any potential transfer would require Chelsea to meet both Real Madrid’s valuation and the player’s wage expectations — which could prove to be major hurdles in securing the deal.
